[xj-s] Wiring harness - 90 XJ-S V-12 (long)

[kyoung@usinternet.com (Keen Young)]

OK, so now I have this new (used) Jaguar with the
distributor-wiring-fuelinjector hose meltdown. Any thoughts on whether I
should get an entirely new wiring harness, or patch the old one? All the
wiring within a foot of the distributor was mostly destroyed, but the rest
of the harness looks undamaged, with the exception of one bundle.
  The one bundle that is bad runs out of the passenger side fender, and
immediately spits off some wires to a couple of relays on the fender. It is
also connected to the CC actuator, the doohicky behind the coils, a sender
in the right manifold, and a couple other unknown items. Do I need to remove
the right fender, or wheel well to get at this bundle? I can't tell which
set it is in the passenger compartment. I'm sure I'll be able to figure it
out when my electrical manual gets here, but I want to start now. (Unless
buying a harness is the way to go). Can you buy partial harnesses?
  Next: Is there anything else inside a Marreli distributor besides the
rotor? The meltdown was pretty severe, and I had to chisel what was left of
the cap and rotor off. I didn't see any little parts lying around, but there
were some large balls of plastic that might hide a small piece of something.
  And: I need to replace the bellows and cable on the CC actuator. The two
servos appear to be working correctly. Can I buy just the bellows and cable
without the servos? Or do I have to buy the whole unit?
  Last: Anyone have suggestions on where to buy the following?
2 coils
cap & rotor
fuel injector hoses
fuel injectors (possibly, don't know for sure yet)
hood insulation
wiring harness (partial, or full if I need to)
two inch cylindrical black plastic thingy in the harness behind the air
injector inlet by the firewall
assorted vacuum lines
plugs and plug wires (NGK?)

Sorry about the length of this. Feel free to answer part or all.
Thanks,  Keen Young
