Does this thing the two pipes are going into look like the "Starship Enterprise"?

Better still is it this that the arrow is pointing at?

heater bypass valve, as said above and in your other thread.

Dealer only part, pattern are even more unreliable.
35 odd quid from vx. Get your mole grips out, scuttle and bracket off for a battle.

Andy - your vaporisor return pipe should be going to the HBV?

[andy broon]

do you think a vauxhall dealer would have it in stock?

[Darth Loo-knee]

do you think a vauxhall dealer would have it in stock?

They usually do at ours and they are about £40 iirc

[andy broon]

cheers dudes so its scuttle off wipers off and its easier that way?

[andy broon]

thats the plenium chamber and the scuttle off what else do you think i should  take off?

[Darth Loo-knee]

Depends on how big your hands are

The car will bite you and so get some plasters at the ready....

As much room as you can really so whatever is best for you.

I found to take off the plenum and scuttle fine I have heard of people removing the inlet manifold too.... it is all personal preference

[andy broon]

haha ye i have already cut myself by hey ho its all in good fun. ye i was thinking about taken off the wipers but i should manage cheers dudes i will keep you informed of how i get on

[andy broon]

Nope. Fit the correct part.
