I was curious and checked my 2.2 clutch switch this afternoon. With the multimeter set to continuity, it only started beeping when the clutch pedal was close to half way down. So my clutch switch is ... |

If the 2.4 and 2.2 switches operate inverse of each other, then certainly, one of them should be same as a Td5.

What is also irritating to me are brain dead local authorities that are checking if drivers have their lights on in tunnels and are happy to see cars with DRLs on even though they do not have any tail ... |

As far as I am aware, the condensate drain on the Puma is just above the gearbox. Very conveniently located.
Mine drips down the gearbox, onto the crossmember. |
