Not to seem anal here but someone told me to NEVER let the wires rub or touch each other as they will short out. Well mine do right near the coil packs should I put wire loam on them or is this not necessary ??

That should not make a difference near the packs. All my wires touch there, they're right next to each other. lol I keep mine very neat but some touch, it'* inevitable unless you are REALLY anal.
HOWEVER, if a rear wire is touching any part of the O2 sensor/harness you will have some issues.

If the outer jackets are intact, it shouldn't be a problem. Are these wires oem? Could be time for replacement just on time alone. Heat will kill them eventually.

it goes around the 02 between the 02 and the firewall ? The wire isn't that long.i just shortened it in the holder so it doesn't touch either the 02 or the exhaust, still seems a shtough there is a better way. Got a pic of yous Bill ?
