Well it looks like all of the vac pipes are ok,i removed the glove box yesterday to check the passenger side of the heater box and all seems ok,Then i had a think and wondered if there was a fuse for the hheater controls,looked in the book and it could be fuse no14 will have to investigate.

Well the pipe is still connected but i still do not seem to have vacuum at the heater(i remember hearing a sucking noise when changing from screen to floor etc before but not now) I think the flaps inside the heater box work off the vacuum so i must have a stuck flap, will have to investigate.

Everything else seems ok(pipes onto top of pollen filter/pipes onto one way valve/ pipe onto matrix take off. Its just the one from the hbv the pipe is only about 300mm long so it must go somewhere near matrix pipes?

Have removed wipers scuttle and wiper linkage,still cannot find where this pipe goes.one vac pipe is connected to the left of the top matrix pipe ,it goes to ns into scuttle (heater box near pollen filter) There is also a vac pipe from one way valve on main vac pipe from vac pump,This also goes to heater box near pollen filter.Also on one way valve is a pipe that goes to egr valve and sensor near battery and that is it.i have taken a photo of matrix pipes and one way valve.http://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad50/chris230163/car/SDC11007.jpghttp://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad50/chris230163/car/SDC11003.jpghttp://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad50/chris230163/car/SDC11004.jpghttp://i920.photobucket.com/albums/ad50/chris230163/car/SDC11005.jpg

Short journeys wont help filler tube gunk,Engine does not get hot causing condensation causing oil to emulsify,change oil flush and change oil again and give it a decent run.good luck on the fire.
