Good find Ben!

Looks like someone in the wiring loom company beginning with 'R' had a bad day :(

I can't see how else it could have happened, it was pretty well hidden.

Interestingly my previous Atom had a custom loom as it had a non standard ECU fitted.  It was a work of art compared to the Honda / R loom on the Atom 2.  Fully braided and even better every connector was labelled, must have cost a fortune.

To end this thread on a happy note.

IT'S RUNNING

Look for a thread soon called 'how to bleed the cooling system' !

Suppose I can take it for its MOT now, which was what I was doing in the first place when I noticed the fuel leak......
