Ignition system wiring harnesses are used to carry discrete electrical signals to the fuel igniter devices of spark ignited engines. Externally mounted wiring harnesses are subjected to damage which can cause the engine to run inefficiently. The subject ignition system wiring harness extends through internal passageways in an engine block and a plurality of cylinder heads mounted thereon. The wiring harness is retained at fixed locations by a plurality of spring clip retainers, each of which has a normally flat elongate spring clip deflected around the wiring harness and slidably extending through a pair of slots in a bracket. The spring clip exerts a nearly constant force on the wiring harness as it tries to straighten to its normally flat condition regardless of the cross sectional size of the wiring harness. Thus, one size of spring clip retainer can be used for various sizes of wiring harness. Moreover, the wiring harness of the present invention is protected from the damage by the surrounding structure of the engine. |
