Hole 1 is for the vacuum take off T piece -

for the oil separator and vacuum advance to the ECU I think.

 

I might have a spare water connection Ill have a look and get back to you.

I've got an elbow water take off, send me a pm if you want it, ill drop it in a jiffy bag. also got the vacuum tee if you need one.

Adrian - I assume you have the carb with the stepper motor? The electric choke is connected to the "W" terminal on the alternator (gives out the necessary voltage when the engine is running to warm up the coil in the choke and progressively open up the butterfly)

Adrian - give us a pic and we can advise accordingly. I'll do a couple of pics of two Ford alternators I've got tomorrow and post them with the info.

Adrian - pics, hope they are of assistance.

IIRC, the "W" teminal was used on my Mk111 Astravan for the relay for the diesel filter heater. I also used this terminal on my Mk111 Cav years ago to provide a split charge system for the caravan battery charging & 'fridge. FWIW, one can also use it to power a relay for day running lights, a mod for my Hood for the future....
