if i remember correctly on the amal valve there are the letters w, r and c

w goes to actuator
c goes to the turbo compressor housing
r goes to the airbox

now its getting complicated
ecu pin 16 in a l6 ecu? does it matter which ones which as they are unmarked and in a T formation ? and im probably asking the obvious but would the dash switch be spliced inline on the pin 16 wire?
