    Question MK plumbing

    While removng the engine from my MK i became aware of the vast amount of heater hose plumbing (that needs to be replaced) and apparent duplication.
    Does anyone know why the heated manifold hose goes from the manifold (LHS) to the RHS and then the heater hose followes it around the engine to a Tee on the RHS? Why not tee it in on the LHS? and use a lot less hose and fittings?

    Why does the inlet manifold have a hose each end and one in the middle?

    is the pipe down the RHS the input or output side of the pump ??

    Is the fitting on the side of the block that goes to the centre of the manifold suitable to supply the heat for the LPG regulator? Guessing it is an output?

    I could probably test it but the engine is hanging on a crane and I would like re-plumb it while it is easy to reach.
