I've got the airbox and gubbins out, got pipe #9 off, had a feel around bottom pipe #11 and can feel the hole, and could see some coolant dripping straight through it before it reaches the opening - need to get underneath again, but I'd say hole is about 5-6mm - more will likely be revealed once I get the pipe #11 off
I removed the clip at the front, holding #9 on to #11, with regular pliers, but I'm not entirely convinced my clip here is OEM, it looks a little different to the diagrams. EDIT: looks the same as the ebay items so maybe is OEM
The MAF connection I sorted, was just being a noob, realised the plug unclips rather than having to unscrew the socket.
Are you saying that once the rear clip is loosened, a bit of force and wiggling should bring the metal pipe out?
As for the meet, it's only about 10 days away, and I am dependent on parts arriving, which I have not yet sourced all of, so with the best of intentions, if it's still in bits awaiting parts, then it's still in bits
- the clips for example, are about 4 weeks' lead time - I might be able to reuse existing one, or replace with jubilee clips, will try that before ordering them
