Some pics about my little milestones… I began by the left side…

Everything is question of correct ordering and checkings… I fix the screw, unscrew it to remove what I just put before, cause the injection hose can’t be fixed correctly. Again and again, screw, unscrew, get back to the computer to check the pictures taken before removal… in short a long and meticulous process but quiet satisfying

Figoulu,

What material is on your firewall?  Is that the final step, or is that something the firewall pad adheres to?

... a long and meticulous process but quiet satisfying

But that extra work makes it stick in your memory.  That helps for the next time parts need replaced/fixed, or the next time someone asks for advice.

Sorry... didn't see your post before

I do not have firewall cover, it was missing from the first day i bought the car. I just consider as of now that it's not my priority, as I put all my efforts to be able to restart the engine...
So I just applyed a coat of epoxy paint just to make it look better and cleaner than what is was before (see original pics or my video https://youtu.be/zFuTw1gGE5M?t=701)

Those days were Relays...

I removed all the covers
Inspected
Cleaned the contacts
Painted the covers
Put everything back in the car...
