All of the harnesses had every option built in, so you will find plugs that don't have stuff plugged in and its nothing to worry about.

I am not sure what all those plugs are, but they are not important.

The green ones are test connectors. They don't plug into anything.

I don't recognize the black one, but you can check around to see if there's a male plug for it.

The white one is for the cruise control? I can't see enough.

Top pic, the 4 prong connector is for the coil, iirc. Bottom pic, assuming that tank is mounted on the firewall, it's the sub-zero assist reservoir. That's filled with 90% antifreeze/10% water. It's designed to squirt that mixture into the combustion chamber to prevent icing during cold starts on very cold days. Mazda issued a TSB years ago to remove them and CA cars never had them due to CARB rules.

In my sig line you will find a link to the online FSMs and other rotary related reading. Download whatever you need and begin your rotary education. Welcome to the forum.
