I recently bought a 1998 V6 Mustang with 120k miles for $500. As the title says it got into a fight with a squirrel and it chewed through some (about 9 total) wires in the harness. There is a pile of wires coming through driver side firewall, also 2 bigger gauge black wires coming through by themselves but pretty close to the pile. I sliced all the little wires back together and even got the car to turn over but it’s acting like it’s not getting fuel. Cranks with starter fluid and dies once that’s consumed. No pressure at the rails. Yet I hear some sort of whin or click coming from the car. Also the squirrel chewed through the rear driver side O2 sensor wire right at the round clip. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Mike

 

After a little more investigation I’ve found another harness under the car kind of running with transmission/o2 sensor wires and about where the exhaust connects to the headers. I’m pretty sure that’s my problem because tail lights, brake lights, fuel pump,and inertia switch are all dead. Anyone know if all of that I mentioned runs together in a harness in that location or how to find out?

 

LOL. Sorry about that.
I actually got my State Farm Insurance to cover loss due to critters after they chewed up my new spark plug wires...
I now have a shotgun to take care of skunks n squirrels in my area :-)
Mice will do thee same though.
Good Luck!
