yep might have to do that just to get it back on the road, would like to keep it all original and connected if i can get another one, just because its all pretty original and has been that way in the 15 years i have had it and i kind of like it that way

ok thanks mate

so when i took the vacum sensor off the old housing (old housing has small crack so am replacing it) some of the senor is still in the housing, looks like the bottom of the sensor has broken off? and is still in the housing so seems i need a new two port sensor now? is this correct the part still in the housing should be attached to the end of the thread on the sensor otherwise i dont see how it would come out.
 
if so where do i find a new one

ok cool thanks for the replies
yeah its a Carbi model, good to know its not under the dash.
I shall have a look on the weekend.
I have had the car for 15 years and always run coolant/corrosion inhibitor in it

Hi i have a manual  88 XF falcon ute, and the heater is no longer getting hot, i checked the thermostat and it was closed when the car was cold, so i assume its not that.
am going to put it in hot water and make sure it opens up ok.
so i was reading perhaps its the heater tap, i bought a new one online, but can someone tell me where the heater tap is on an XF, is it in the engine bay or up behind the dash
 
thanks

ok thanks for the info, i replaced all the black vacuum hoses around, to and from the carby while i was at it anyway just to be sure as some were getting bit cracked
