Hi! That photo has been really helpful and there is progress but I'm just struggling to see where a couple of last connections go please. On the photo below I have 3 ports - I'm not sure about the right hand one - maybe oil filler breather? Bottom left I think is MPS, top left I seem to have written "Aux Air" but can't remember where I got that info now. Also on the other photo what is this item please? Aux air valve maybe? Where does the other pipe from it go to please if so?
Many thanks! Dylan

Last pic is of the decel valve. Mounted on the same bracket as the MPS (in a 2 liter at least).

Thread about how it’s hooked up (and more) here:

Ah ok thanks - so that upper left port on my photo probably should be 'Decel Valve' with the other pipe from the decelerations valve going to the air filter box.
So that just leaves the right hand port which maybe goes to the oil filler tower? Or does the oil filler tower connect to the air filter box to please?

Those two open ports are cylinder head vents. You need to put hoses on them and run them to some kind of vent can that is much higher up in the engine compartment.

The wire coming out of the tin is the cylinder head temp sensor for the original fuel injection. With a carb, you can ignore it. But I would suggest that you get the original FI parts and put the FI back on the car. It will run much better than the single carb.

The green with a red trace wire is supposed to hook to the oil pressure sender for the idiot light. It is in a hole next to the distributor. If you ground the wire, the oil light should come on.

Hope that helps.

Hi again! Sorry this is taking me a long time - I'm just try to may the last few connections as I don't want to damage anything. From above, I can see on the Haynes book diagram too that the red/green wire should go to the oil pressure switch. There is currently a green/black wire connected to the oil pressure switch and so where should that be relocated to please? The diagram I have doesn't mention a green/black wire! This is my last wire I think!
Regards, Dylan

It is in the bottom of the case, in the left front corner. There is a round plate bolted to the bottom. If it has the sensor, it will be mounted in that plate. If it doesn't have the sensor, the plate won't have a place for it. It is nicknamed the "Taco Plate"

Check this thread for hoses. I think you have AAR port correct http://914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=105298

Ah - thank you. I'll have a hunt underneath. As this is optional according to the diagram, and I don't have a gauge, I assume it doesn't affect the running of the car?

Thanks - useful diagrams. I think I'm going to miss out the deceleration valve and see if it's necessary. There doesn't seem to be a way of connecting it easily to what I have.
