Mouse nest under fuel rail

I made a visit to DWK5150. We had to take my fuel rail off for some routine maintenance LOL. Under the rail was a mouse nest! After examinining the wiring harness there was some nibbiling on one of the wires.

Its a good thing a had a new one to replace it

Anyway I wanted to give people a heads up now that winter is over and just to check your car over or at least this spot.

my moms cat got scared when there some workers at the house once and the cat hid in the engine. they made it to the end of the street till the belt broke and popped the hood to see a mangle cat missing an ear and bleeding everywhere. and yes my mom spent thousands of dollard to save him. After that he was mean S.O.B.
