In my Lotus Elan Sprint 1971 it is missed. I am talking about a component fixed at the body near the Weber 40, under windscreen. It is connected with a tube running to the other size and going inside of the car on the left side. It has some electrical connecctions too. What is it?
A battery cable (going to starter solenoid) could appear (from a photo) to be a tube. Doesn’t the cable run sideways, just behind engine, then disappear into car’s interior on left side?
Is the tube in the original question known to be a tube, or is that an assumption based on an image?
