I was checking the alternator wiring on my 2-wire 1998 916
and found that one of the two metal connectors (inside the plastic
housing) has gotten pretty hot and turned black and partially
melted the white plastic.  Does anyone know what can be done
to fix this problem?  Is the best solution just to cut the connectors
off and replace with a new connector?  What is the amp rating
required of the connector?   I was thinking of something like this:

each connector is capable of 50amps.
