try to the left of the expansion tank, there should the fuel pump (i think, its the cylidrical black thing) and the vacuum pipes are around there. they are thin diameter and clear/white in colour, and hard plastic. mine needed popping back into its braided hose connector


I don't think a semi will give the same results

thats where mine was but the end of the pipe was split, cut an inch off and re-applied.  Went for a decent run and the car is completely smooth  :smiley:  MFA now reads 14mpg  :huh:
