    Tip for getting wires in sleeve?

    Installing a new electro sport stator. Any tips on getting the 3 yellow wires through the plastic sleeve? Can get 2 easily, but not 3.

    thanks.

    You might try shooting some WD-40 inside the tube

      If you have terminals on the ends of the wires, don't push all three through at the same time.

        Hi
        Tried WD-40.
        No terminals on end of wires - just bare wires.

        Thanks though.

          Find a piece of solid wire. Household 14 gauge is good- or a piece of wire hanger-Tightly tape the 3 wires near the end of the solid wire. Push the solid wire thru, then the pull stator wires thru. When you tape the 3 wires to the solid wire set each one back a bit so the pack of wires is like a wedge shape.

          When consulting the magic 8 ball for advice, one must first ask it "will your answers be accurate?"
