Default Multi Plugs on Inlet Manifold

can someone point out where the different coloured multi plugs fit on the inlet manifold just want to make sure ive fitted them correctly, theres a green,black,brown, cream,yellow and blue multi plug, some of the ports have colours on them so ive connected the designated plug to it but there r 3 which im not 100% sure about.

From memory...

Green = Knock sensor
Black = Aux air/warm up valve
Brown = Thermo time switch
Cream = Not sure
Yellow = Temp sensor on bottom of inlet manifold
Blue = Cold start injector

Sure someone will be along to correct me

There should be a secondary CTS by the auxiliary air device, if you don't have one i have a spare i will sell because i never plan to run MFI ever again even if someone paid me to

Follow the hard plastic pipe connected to the throttle body and you will find it
