IIRC, the front of the car is to the right in this diagram, I'm not quite sure anymore. But yes, the numbers coincide with the cylinders, so there is a way in which you can align the diagram with your engine.

Hey Bjoern. I have a question about your wiring diagram on the MAF conversion. Is the diagram of the injector wiring from the top view of the engine? Because I'm guessing the injector numbers don't coinside with the cylinder numbers? Thanks
The auto tranny is a problem, because you have a very limited choice of computers. Unfortunately, I have no idea about auto trannies and can't help you there. Conversion to standard is a big deal and not for the faint of heart. I bought a book on Ford EFI which I found to be very helpful and I learned a lot from it. I think it was this one: [link]
hey bjoern, ive had your maf conversion in my favorites forever... i finally rebuilt the engine, but put in a lumpier cam, along with some other minor mods, so now basically, it runs, but with the old map sensor, not so good. thats alot of technical words, and all ive worked on up to this point is oldies with carbs and no EFI, but im learning alot and im loving it. i have one difference, but i dont think it bothers anything, i have an automatic transmission, so if i install the maf system out of a newer pickup it may want to read the e40d when i just have an aod... unless maybe i can find one with a standard transmission?? i dunno, im getting so confused with all this technology, i would like to do it step by step just as you did. can you help me somehow?
German inspection requires all 1991 or later cars to have a bright red light in the back of the car to be used in foggy conditions. I placed a Peugeot 206 light in the bumper.
In order to pass German inspoection, I had to install a rear fog light. Some people on MX-5.de, the german miata enthusiast website, suggested to use the Peugeot 206 light in the center of the rear bumper. I liked how that looked, so I went ahead and did it.
First, the bumper had to come off. You can see the places where it bolts to the chassis marked in the pictures.
This is the bumper in my apartment, before any modifications to it:
I started by making a cneter hole form the inside, where everything is so symmetrical, that finding the center is easy.
You can see the hole from the outside here:
I then taped the area with masking tape and drew the outline of the light on it. Using a Dremel tool, I cut around the outline, leaving about a milimiter to allow for fine-trimming of the shape for a perfect fit.
After quite soem trimming, the hole was finally ready to receive the light. Let me warn you: this is quite some mess with all those little white plastic shavings flying all over the place!
I think it looks quite nice like that. I used plenty of heat-glue to properly and securley seat the light in the bumper, to make sure it would vibrate out.
You can see some of the heat-glue on this picture. You can also see, that I only had to cut a fairly small hole on the inside of the bumper, just enough to fit the light through.
As soon as the weather gets better, I'll post pictures with the bumper mounted back on the car.
