Also, can anyone (the world this time) throw some light on metal vent/drain pipes, located each side of the rear window, behind the trim panel? Cockpit side not engine side. The drivers pipe has a very loose thin rubber pipe on it, about 6" long . the passengers has nopipe on it. really want to get the car running right, ready for the north midlands run to oulton park on the 26th feb. was the only G car on the last one!
