Weird throttle after replacing Engine Wiring Harness 200 1982

Well you could take it back to the mechanic to have him re-check the harness installation. The problem there is, now that the old harness is out, what is he going to check the installation against? Does he have a really good set of wiring diagrams for your year and model?

For the problem your having, low power and apparent over heating, I would first look at ignition timing and timing belt alignment. I know it doesn't make any sense that a harness installation would affect that. It is just what I would check based on those symptoms.

Where the coolant temp and boost gauges reading normal?
