#1 could be anything. Where abouts is the plug in the engine bay ?
#2 is the plugs for the two idle control solenoids on the back of the plenum. The parts the fit onto are colour coded to match the plugs.
#5 as above, looks like the starter motor positive feed.
And yes, you can just plug those vacuum hoses up. Just make sure they don't leak.
If you look a little closer, you can actually remove one of them (one of the bigger ones), that runs back to the fuel tank.

Rattle Advice
Hi everyone, just had a recon gearbox, transfer box and a new clutch fitted, now i have noticed a faint rattle from the engine when its started from cold, sounds like the big ends to me but its only there for about 1 - 1.5 seconds while the oil pressure builds up, the pressure sits about 6 - 7 bar when cold and 3 - 5 bar when up to temp, would it be worth putting a new set of shells in as i'm now skint after replacing nearly the whole drivetrain and cannot afford a engine rebuild for a few months, thanks in advance Paul

Sounds like the big end, mine started off as a faint tapping and gradually turned into a really loud tapping on start up which could then be heard if you rev'd the car to about 3k rpm.
Being honest I wouldnt worry if its only light just know, just keep an eye on your pressures and you should be okay. Yes it will get gradually worse if you dont fix it, but the extra time will allow you to save up and go for the full rebuild.

Thanks for the advice. I'll keep an eye on it (or an ear) if it gets any worse i'll do the shells i could do with it lasting the summer really as i want to rebuild with forged internals and i have to get some cash together.
Can the shells be done without taking the engine out?

to all you straight cut box owners
I got another gearbox which needs to be identyfied(hopefully). I will add some pics to make it easyer, LOL. All i know that originally it came from UK and that's all. All the cogs have ingravings on them, they start with 1494_..... Maybe that will help!?

starting problems
Can anybody help me i wos going to castle combe on saturday, when i came to my car it would'nt start and when i did it wos running like a bag of old bolts. I have run a fault check and i comes back with 34 det sensor 13 engine temp sensor and 11 crank angle sensor. I have had it running drove for about a mile then cut out when it wos running alot of black smoke from back off car and strong smell of petrol. I have taken spark plugs out and they are very wet so seems like no spark. I have only had car for around 6 weeks and for most of the time i have been working on fitting new turbo cause when i got it turbo had blown.
Please help

Help with what mate?
You've already said you've identified the problems!!
"comes back with 34 det sensor 13 engine temp sensor and 11 crank angle sensor"
Try changing a few of these things first and see how you get on.

I have had a play with wiring, taking connectors off and cleaning up and cleared fault code 11 and found that a large connector by top of gearbox that does'nt connect propally and by looking i think its the one that connects to the det sensor and engine top sensor. The connector is grey in colour could somebody tell me if this right. The car does sart up now but still running bad
