I need to extend some wiring.
In the past ive used resin core solder and heat shrink tubing with electrical tape and wiring loom over it. Is this the correct way? Will it change readings from sensors like the TPS ignition coil because of the rosin core solder? |

I just extended some oxygen sensor wiring with no issues at all. Used rosin-core solder, heat shrink, and then tons of electrical tape to keep it all together. No side effects at all.
I've had no good luck with crimp connections, though I'm sure some are better than others. |
