Default Plenum check

As I live in an area surrounded by trees I gave the plenums a check and there was nothing to worry about but I do check them regularly

I checked mine MK2 CDTI with a watering can. Th N/S ran out perfectly on to th floor near th mud guard. Th drivers side was very slow to reach th N/S and didn't gush out th same.. Am I missing some thing here.??? I would have thought it would come out on th drivers side.???

The mk2 doesn't have a drain over the drivers side does it?

I believe there are just the ones under the cabin filter and the one on the passenger side.

On the floor of the plenum chamber are 2 drain holes, the usual one you can see under the ecu, & one under the servo, drivers side.
The upper drain on the wings was deleted on the MK2 drivers side

Ah yes I remember reading about that one, access only from underneath?

If mine gets blocked it will have to stay that way I'm afraid.

As I say th drain hole with th ECU cabin filter (N/S) runs away freely but when I put water down th other (yes its blanked off on th mk 2) it must... or does it re appear on th n/s floor. Mine only trickles out. Is there 2 drain pipes running to th floor or are they connected to run into one??
