Yes, it has a sleeve on part of it. Should I unbundle it from the rest of the wires? Does it terminate on the plus side of the coil?
It does go to the positive side of the coil.
The "resistor" part is only under the dash though. Once it passes through the firewall, it becomes just regular old wire.
As for separating it. I don't know that you "have" to, but if it's not that big a deal, I would consider it at least. That would let it stay cooler and not heat up any of the other wires if it got hotter than normal.
If it was taped up with the rest originally though, then Ford didn't think it important enough to separate. Probably figured that the heat sleeve would be enough, and it probably is.
They do get pretty hot sometimes though, so take a look at it and see what you think.
