[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 297167, member: 7544"] If you adhere to that logic, there are a whole lot of people here that should toss their motor now and go buy something new. Personally, if my 1975 model breaks down and it's something other than a complete lower unit replacement or power head replacement, I'll be searching ebay for some used parts to get it back up and running again. IMO wire is not expensive and there aren't that many in a your motor. You can start buying and replacing wires one at a time as funds permit, until you've replaced them all, and not have very much invested. BTW, as far as I'm aware, "[b]when (not if) something fails[/b]" applies to everything in this world that has moving parts. It's going to fail sooner or later and need to be repaired or replaced.
