Hello... Jemal here, a fire was certainly a possibility before I installed the new alternator conversion complete wiring loom! The loose wires you see in this video were just a tachometer connection made temporarily, and probably a ground for the little heater I'd just installed... They were cleaned up soon after!
I probably know some of you from the Mini Mania forum, and this post was pointed out to me by a friend who recognized my car, so I registered here.... I'll do an introductory post and point you to my youtube channel where I have about 150 videos done over the last few years as I built this Mini, and a variety of other projects.
