Can you help identify a couple of things?

Had to take the 7 to the <shudder> dealer to get the clutch replaced. I know, I know, the dealer is your fiend, but up where I live there only about 4 (including mine) rotary cars in the whole area. It's an '87 base.

Anyhow, when I got the car back, I did my usual check under the hood and found one resistor (?) Picture Link (circled) off, and one connector Picture Link (circled) off.

Anyone have any idea where they are supposed to go?

Also, the morons managed to flood it (never happened before), and look at the plugs on the lead rotor HERE . Not to mention there's a *LOT* more oil in the engine bay than there was before.

First one is actually a capacitor. Goes to one of the slave cylinder mounting bolts.

The second one is a ground wire from under the intake. There should be a matching terminal on the firewall it will plug into.

The second one goes to the firewall, right beside the wiper motor. u will see a prong with nothing on it. Just plug it in and your good to go.

Thanks guys.

I can fix the second picture, but I don't have a place to fix the second one. I'll take it back to the buggers and get them to fix it - again. and I'll ask for a new set of plugs for the hassle. It's a 150km return drive to the dealer. (about 100 miles for the metrically challenged).
