The idle-up valve attached to the strut bar is a different design to the
one pictured earlier in this thread. The first type cannot function when it
is removed from its housing.
The second type has two hose connections and can be mounted pretty
much any place you like. It will usually take filtered air from the airbox
or from the intake ducting.
On the temp probe, the sensitive bit is in the tip (strange that

) and
halfway in should be fine. The hole in the ducting should be sealed with
a rubber grommet or a flexible sealant to prevent air leaks.
