Default Nology Wires interfering with MAFT Need help Shielding

Please check this post

It has the details of the problem.

I have been helping a forum member isolate the problem. It looks like the Nology wires are the culprit. They are emmiting so much RF noise that the engine goes bonkers and barely idles. If he hangs the MAFT outside the car away from the engine the problem goes away. I suggested wrapping the MAFT in foil and grounding it but it made the problem worse.

What suggestions do you have to shielding the RF coming off the Nology's?

I know we have some slick enginerers out there.

Thanks Chuckster.

I removed the Nology wires, fixed my stock wires and replaced them.

Problem solved. I don't believe that the Nology wires gave me much of an increase anyway.

Thanks for all your help.
