So what part did you melt exactly? By the sounds of your day, I have a good guess. Lol

Left my nigga's house paid
Picked up a girl been tryin to fuck since the twelfth grade
It's ironic, I had the brew she had the chronic
The Lakers beat the Supersonics
I felt on the big fat fanny
Pulled out the jammy, and killed the punanny
And my dick runs deep, so deep, so deep
I put her ass to sleep
Woke her up around one
she didn't hesitate, to call Cow the top gun
Drove her to the pad and I'm coasting
Took another sip of the potion & hit the three-wheel motion
I was glad everything had worked out
Dropped her ass off, then I chirped out
Today was like one of those fly dreams
Didn't even see a berry flashing those high beams
No helicopter looking for a murder
Two in the morning got the Fat burger
Even saw the lights of the Goodyear Blimp
And it read, "That Cow's a pimp!"
Drunk as hell but no throwing up
Half way home and iPhone's still blowing up
Today I didn't even have to use my A.K.
I got to say it was a good day.

my cable has been melted for a while now too. i believe its routed the stock way as well, just the front is routed under the intake manifold. what are some other ideas on how to keep this problem from happening again?

I melted a brake line once. Apparently my dump tube was too close. And by too close I mean touching. It melted to it and then one day it decided to separate from it spewing brake fluid all over the place. Wouldn't have been too bad except it separated as I was coming to a stop at a red light. I plowed right through that light and mysteriously didn't hit anybody. lol
