Spare bit ?

Post by BiggestNizzy » Thu Oct 25, 2007 3:08 pm

Started stripping off the other side of the car today it's alot easyier with the front clam off :) and I found a length of clear 8mm O/D 6mm I/D plastic tube in the rearward lower wishbone chassis tube it has a 90 degree elbow on one end and I have no idea what it is and what it is supposed to connect to

any idea's ? if I can find the camera I will take a picture although it will be a bit boring.

I would think it is either a drain from the bonnet or the thingywidgetdonkeyflange pipe. Refit it or you will be arrested and put on the sex offenders register.

In short, no idea. :shock: :roll:

Next question what does the battery vent pip plug into (don't say battery) or maybe that should be where. battery is coming out tommorow for a charge, hopefully the alarm wont go bonkers (see other post)
