Re: throttle
Oil gets behind the crankshaft sensor and messes up the reading.. remove it, clean the oil out of the sensor hole and wipe the sensor face .watch out for the O ring. Worth a cheap fix try.

Yes the position ringed in your pic is where I've put the T piece. Be mindful of the heat in this area, metal T piece and good clips are advised.

Re: Rear lights keep popping the fuse
From memory the wiring loom for the back end goes along the driver's side panel where the grab handles are then into the rear door, is it possible you may have drilled the wires while fitting your curtains.
