Please see drawing: http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/images/coscontrol.gif Item 13 has three hose connections on one end but on my car I can only find two vacuum hoses running into it. These two hoses are joined at the end with a rubber grommit type thingy, which only allows you to connect them on one way. This leaves a more central connection without anything connected. Is this correct or am I missing something?

OK, well I've made a little section of hose to plug it, will test to see if there is any difference in idle and general running with it on as opposed to it being absent

I think it's a dummy mate, it has no hole in it but the moulding is there if you get my drift. But do check as my mind is a bit hazey on the subject (brain like a blackhole sometimes)

There is no hole in the end, had a good look at this a while ago when checking and re-attaching vacuum connections.
