Default Picked up a 1984 s1

I've just picked up a rs on a B plate, I'm very pleased with it except over the years the wiring has been messed around with do you lads know of where to get a wiring diagram from? Or is it a case of picking up a Haynes book? Cheers. http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...filter=noflash

When i had my s1 there was a supplimentary workshop manual you could buy that had full wiring diagramms in it. Always a stand at the shows that sell it. Otherwise as the coswoth ones you can normally pick them up on ebay for peanuts. Sold mine for Ł40 10 years ago and bought a cosworth one handy as fook
