Default Question about 3 problems on my type R swap

Hey fellows I just did my swap this past weekend and everything went fine, stressing but fine. Well first question is my thermostat sensor is bad can I still be able to drive to get my exhaust put on? Question 2 I'm using a oem type r fuel line on my stock fuel filter and gas is leaking out when engine is turn on what do I need to do? and last question is are 93 CX hatch pre wire for vtech? my vtech oil, o2, and knock sensor don't show up but my vtech silenoid did, I didn't splice anything for my vtech cuz i'm using a gsr engine harness on the type r and has that plugged into my stock CX car harness which I heard is already wired for v-tech. Ur help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

The fuel line should work fine. Did you make sure to put the washers back on?

No, '93 cx is not pre-wired for vtec.

i meant only my vtech silenoid showed up as a code the others didn't, I have a sub-harness for that and now i'm wondering wats the best way to get thru the firewall to get to da engine without removing my dash? I found out that the water temperature sensor is just my fan switch sensor so as long i'm rolling I won't b over heating. Anyways I realize that my engine sits a lil high is that normal, I've got the aftermarker avid engine mounts on and i knoe they're thick and was wondering if that's da problem cuz my engine is actually touching the hood when I close it, I'm thinking about putting the stock mounts on and get rid of the aftermarket mount if that would help.

I ususally just run it through one of the rubber grommets on the passenger side of the firewall.

I dont know anything about avid mounts, but I havent had any rubbing issues on the 3 b-series civics I have owned.
