Engine wire heat insulation :nix::nix::nix:

Hi

I just found a wire with the heat insulation destroyed. Please see the attached picture and let me know if this can cause any issues or what wire is this in order to buy a new one.

Thanks

I got some heat wire tape (15 ft for $19) from Pep Boys. I'll check with a mechanic if this can cause any problems in the future.
