Engine harness tape
Does anyone know where I can get the right friction tape and non stick vinyl tape for the engine wire harness?
Thank you! |

Eastwood company used to sell both the vinyl and fabric style wire harness tapes without adhesive, but I don't know if they still have them in their catalog. The problem with using the adhesive backed tape is it will get all gummy over time, particularly when used in a hot engine compartment

AMK fasteners also sells it.
Have also seen a post somewhere showing how to do a similar job with electrical tape. Wrap the wires one turn with electrical tape sticky side down, then flip the tape over so the adhesive side it up, and wrap the wires as far as you want to cover them, then flip the tape back over so adhesive side is down, and wrap back to the starting point. You will end up with 2 layers of tape, and the only area that the wires are actually stuck to the tape is the start where the first wrap was placed. This allows the harness to flex and curve naturally similar to using the non adhesive tape.

This stuff is what I just ordered.
Read the reviews- some good suggestions about heat gun/lighter at the end, or super glue... I thought about it, and think I'll seal the ends with shrink tubing. https://www.amazon.com/Tesas-Advance...8CXE413P64NGM1

Non-stick vinyl tape
Ebay item # 352316808983 is what you want. I've used it, matches perfectly.
