H3T Cam Pos Sensor Wiring/ insulation

[Mr_Rich]

One thing I noticed under the hood of my truck after my 6K trip back east was that the CPS insulation was literally flaking away. That plastic sheathing that's used in other parts of the truck seems to be in good shape, but I was surprised at the condition in that one area at the front of the engine. I was able to replace the insulation and retape it fairly easily. I thought it might be a good head-ups since damage to those wires could create all sorts of havoc at the wrong time.

Where abouts are these exactly? Definitely would like to take a look at both of ours.

It's essentially right behind the radiator cap and under the oil fill on the engine. If it was a snake it would bite you as soon as you popped the hood. I was amazed that the insulation was literally disintegrating at this spot which is why I'm mentioning it. It's so obvious and yet so easy to overlook.
