Im happy out considering since the last time it ran ive changed the timing belt and done a coil on plug conversion plus lots of other wire chopping

There is one coolant leak on the plates i made for the coolant reroute which i just sealed up and maybe i need to get some gaskets to do it properly

For some stupid stupid reason i decided i wasnt happy with the wiring as the loom was too long in places and the fuse boxes were too messy for me so ive spent a good while at it now and am happy enough where it is now.

Is this normal looking for an mx5 fuel sender seems a bit weird to have bare wires in the fuel tank
