Al, interesting that (opaqueness). My Honda loom connectors stayed clear / original, and yet the secondary loom connectors (I’d made up for electronic ignition) have gone cloudy. (70C ultrasonic wash in commercial detergent solution).

I’m therefore guessing aftermarket connector covers are the problem?
