[QUOTE="CMOS, post: 422326, member: 15462"] The wire itself will be fine. The air temperature inside the cowling is not that high. My only concern with what you did is the crimp terminations. I'm anal, and I don't like them. At some point, the crimp connections will oxidize. I always solder these connections. A soldered connection is hermetic, which will not oxidize. It'll work for now but I'd suggest getting an inexpensive Weller soldering iron, watch a couple YouTube videos and learn to solder those connections. CMOS [/QUOTE]
