There does seem to be some confusion. My Leyland Workshop Manual for 67/68
cars shows a light-green green going from the temp to the oil, which becomes
a green when it goes on to the fuel. However it also shows a green from the
stabiliser to the temp. Diagrams for 68 to 71 cars show the
light-green/green going from the stabiliser to the temp to the fuel, with a
seperate green going to the oil.
