OK this time I think I really got it.
 
Here's the quick update - over the weekend I started the car up and turned
the wheel full lock to left - car died.  Would not re-start.  So I unturned
it a little  - started - so went looking around back there with car running
- I could tell the rack was rubbing the harness at left lock - so I was
feeling around for a hole in the insulation and all it took was a
jiggle/touch of the harness and the car would stumble.  Jiggle rpm wires no
issues.  After wondering for a day where to go from there - I went back to
take a look - and poking around I noticed the 13mm nut for the ground tree
on the IM was very loose - the wires had all sorts of movement.  So
tightened it up - no issues - running great since.
 
Apparently I had failed to tighten that nut when I installed the IM phenolic
spacer.  Many months ago.  Must have worked itself loose.
