plumbing injection cooling !!!!!!

[birminghamtr7]

here i am confused again and lack of good detail in manuals ( poor memory ) to be fair i did remove some 3 - 4 years ago.

ok so engine is in car and as you do, i am offering bits and pieces up deciding what to paint etc, and i am looking at the cooling in particular, 2 parallel pipes on a bracket that also blocks off the not required fuel pump hole. The right hand as i look from the side is straight forward 1 pipe to pump housing 1 to fuel injection manifold under thermostat.

to the left it looks as though the 2 other pipe are the 2 pipes to the heater radiator, that leaves me, then with the water outlet from the head at the rear which would normally have that tight u bent pipe to the heater radiator on carbed version.

question is what or where does the rear head outlet connect !! any pictures wouldn't half help. On all of the pictures i have, the fresh air duct obstructs the area i'm interested in. my pipes loosely offered up below

Injection engines didn't have a coolant connection at the back of the cylinder head.

ah that might figure, i have stripped a few engines over the last couple of years and never noticed, better get searching through parts boxes for correct end cap or was it blanked off, if you have a close up of that area that would be super. It terrible when you take things apart and you think to yourself ill remember that and guess what you dont.

B.t.w. the end plate is the same for all cars. Only on the US/PI cars the hole were the coolant hose connects is left blank.

Not sure what you're asking for here. Honest, I am not hung over. Here are two pictures one before painting engine bay with everything out and one after painting with water tubes connected. Hope this helps.

great pictures spyder they will be really usfull could you email them as well that would be really good, But a big thanks beans just gone to box of bits straight in front of me rear end plate as you suggected looks the same as standard apart from casting not machined through i must have just picked up shineest without thinking. here are picture of part for reference for any one. again thanks for all your help.

as you can see looks the same as standard, except for pipe not pressed in.



however when you look at the rear you can see that cast is clearly blanked off.

Glad you found out the difference yourself, because I forgot to take a picture of it [:I]
Managed to create another cooling "problem" though ...
