For those who have installed it themselves, did anybody run into any issues with Electrical connections rubbing (specifically at the 90degree just below the oil fill)

Although the supplies directions aren’t toouser friendly there were no issues for me.

My only advice is to use a “grabber” on the lower bracket nut so you don’t loose it into the abyss. Put the nut in the claw of the grabber, then use it to lower the nut on to the stud. You should also be able to get a few threads started before you release the nut.

This was the worst part. i used the paper in the socket method but i kept feeling like it was gonna crossthread the entire time. That and the swivel kept dropping and it was tough to line up.

No issues with mine:

I just looked at mine and the electrical wires exiting the connector are ~3/8" away from the squeeze clamp on the separator drain hose. Engine movement doesn't bring the two any closer so I'm not concerned. If I was a simple zip tie and I could go back to rearranging my sock drawer in short order.
