    Ace, thank god for that. That link I was given to the vacuum tree was a huge help, actually wasn't too bad tracing it all through and learning where all them bits were and what they were connected to etc.

      SOunds like you've got it... For the record, that hose should only EVER be presented with vacuum - its on the back-end of a 1-way valve and shares a connection with a vacuum reservoir. Unless you have a leaky vacuum tree, then you'll get vacuum on that recirc valve pipe ALL the time.

      The aircon 'REC' button activates a solenoid on the recirc valve which then allows vacuum pressure to close the fresh-air flap.

        Brilliant, I'm glad thats sorted. I know that the recirc works, cos I got a face full of cack when I put it on. It served a second purpose too, I can now get an idea of where and how to put my boost gauge in

        Again, thanks for the vacuum tree diagrams, they were indispensible.
