If you look closely you will see the metal pipes on the t/b are a different colour for water and vacuum

OK are both these pipes water, obviously the one from the pump is but what about the one that seems to go towards the bulkhead. If anyone can look at theirs would be good. One pipe seems straight and the other has bends in it so it shouldnt be hard to see which one goes where

This should help LOTS of people, one of the most common problems is wrongly connecting these pipes resulting in water being sucked into the engine. Many have done this including qualified mechanics!

The 2 gold pipes, 1 &2 are Vacuum
3 & 4 are WATER
