Can I run the heater power wire next to wideband/guage wires? I'm wiring a bottle heater in my car, and I was wondering if I can route the large power wire for the heater alongside another bunch of fine wires for the wideband and nitrous pressure gauge.
I'm just affraid that maybe the high electrical output of the bottle heater's power wire might disrupt the signal going to the wideband and pressure gauge?

Because heater power is direct current there is no problem. If the wire is too small it could overheat - your instructions probably recommend 10 or 12 gauge wire.
