My principle problem area was alternator wires, they kept breaking at the connector.
I have also had problems with the bulkhead mounted ignition balast resistors.
Both of these were solderd and the balast resistors cables were cable tied in place.
Since crimping and, on the alternator, using flexible wiring, I haven't had a problem.
