You must be talking a carby car.
They both go to the heater so one out one in.
Logic suggests that the centre one is in and the outer one is out., as a centrifugal pump will always suck in the middle and push to the outside.
If no heater you should loop one to the other.

Thanks for that as i thought they were the only engine cooling pipes.

yep it is a carby p76 with some rangie bolt on stuff so if i want the heater to work i will have to find somewhere to plumb it or bypass it as you said.

wounder if anybody knows if there is a place on a p76 block to pipe it to as the one near the carby has been remover when carby was upgraded.
