if you look to the left of the throttle body, there is a second cable which arcs to the left and back down again - that's the cruise control unit at the end of it! (under the coolant expansion tank), so that car DOES have cruise control ...

Mark, there is something seriously wrong with that 2.6.

All the plenum bolt covers are in place. There should be, at the very least, one of them missing. I though that was standard on a V6.

LOL, When I got the car back from Vx following camblet change, two of the dust caps were missing. This is what it looked like, I took this ficture while still at the garage:




I gave them hell, and since they could not find them anywhere in the workshop I made them order a couple of new ones for me which I collected a few days later!

Doesn't matter how many times they are replaced, they seem to always go missing! Must be the raw power from the V6.

Hi Markjay, was wondering if you knew where the heater vacuum pipes were on a 2.6 2001 model, my heater turns cold, and some members indicate the pipe/s may be at fault.

regards Dave (not very good under the bonnet).

Best thing to do Dave is follow the instructions i put for the 2.5 on the heater thread you just looked at, once you've located the vac pipes via the indication arrow.
