A couple of general questions!

Firstly I was changing my otter switch for a lower temp one and straight away noticed it was a pig to get a spanner on, (mine is on the rad)... done it in the end but I was looking to take the air intake out to give me more room but couldn't seem to pull it through, I took the end off the air filter but it didn't want to move, I noticed there was a couple of cable ties near the middle, but i couldn't see what was stopping it at the end. I'm only curious because I'll be changing it for a smooth bore one soon probably.

The other thing is that I was changing a vacuum hose as as the rubber cap looked perished and noticed there was another tube coming out the back, should there the something on there, if so to go where? its a 2000 plate by the way. See pic

The dizzy vac cannister on old systems used a retard port as well as advance so this is not used now so just gets left off.
Not sure why some cars had this style cannister.
