If i can reuse this bulkhead connector is there a way to "fill in" the opening a bit to help locate the female connector (interior side) to facilitate getting the engine harness aligned and able to mate with the bulkhead connector more easily?



Worse case, you could trim off the smooshed-out plastic, reconnect the plug from the engine side, then push the wire/terminal through the hole from inside and use a pair of needle nose pliers to firmly seat it on the spade. I'd just spring for a new one.

Course, next time you remove the plug it will want to pull the wire through the bulkhead.
