From your post then some of the earlier cars did have two drain tubes. Has anyone ever posted on here that BOTH tubes had got blocked ??

It could be that that many of the damaged ECU's could have escaped water damage with two drains rather than one.-

You are confusing upper drains with lower drains.

ALL 75's have 2 lower drains.
From mid 2003ish the driver's side upper drain was replaced with a grommet.

The upper drains are not related to problems with ECU !
