MK 2 Series 2 Vacuum hose set up and bracket question

[Peter Meyer]

Can someone suggest the correct mounting for the vacuum line please and also the airbox bracket is a little odd. I think its probably for a LHD car and would hold the accelerator cable. Does anyone know?

Peter,

2 Brass P clips for the pipe and Yes the hole is for LHD cable.
Ford phillosphy, Why have 2 parts bins when one will do both jobs!!

Thanks Andy. Do you have a photo of the brass clips and how they fit? and any idea where I might find some or something suitable?

You can see (just) how the p clips fit in the photo in my previous post above.
The brass p clips can be sourced from

Thank you. That is most helpful. Looks like I should buy a few different sizes for stock!
Are you able to suggest which size or sizes are appropriate?

In the first photo down there is another small clip which I hope you can see. Any idea where one can get these as well? They look like a slide on type?

No, I don't know the size unfortunately, my mk1 Lotus Cortina is supposed to have a similar vacuum pipe for the servo, but the pipe and servo are missing on my car.

Thanks. That's brilliant. I'll just buy an assortment because I can see I need some for other things like brake cables.......

Hi peter

My p clips are original and you're welcome to measure them, I'll be back in Sydney next week. They are attached by large cross head self tappers. They might also be a bit tricky to source.... Robert
