[QUOTE="ttocs, post: 1364092, member: 11896"] each connector has its time and place. In reality all the ones I showed(with the exceptions to the ones I showed to never use) are all acceptable connection methods although some will work better then in others. The military splice is really just supposed to be a minimalists approach on how to make a connection. I can't tell you a single time where it was recommended to military splice that for me it just was not any harder to do it standard style and solder it. I ALWAYS SOLDER..... If the time came up that I didn't have solder and needed to fix a bad connection then I would do the military splice till I had enough time to do it the way I like. As for multiple runs on a single wire I would not go with the military splice and would go with a standard soldered connection. Its just safer... Now you mention about the injectors for example. If I am not mistaken there is one common wire between all of them and one per injector. For the common wire between all 16 yes you could use the military splice here perfectly. Hope I answered them all and did not make any new ones. Let me know if I did. [/QUOTE]
