So my MC21 project is finally nearing competetion. The motor is assembled and installed. But before I start it I want to make sure all the devices on the motor are working correctly. So i have some questions:
How can I test the oil pump to be sure its working? I'm not too worried from a mechanical perspective, but it has an elecrical gizmo on it and I don't know what it does.
Were does the vent hose on the right carburetor go?
The vacuum lines on the carbs: I have the red HRC "T" fitting. One port on the T fitting is left open, but this leaves an open hose on the two things above the oil pump. What do I do with that open hose? What are those two things and how can I be sure they are working?
RC valves: When I turn on the key I thought that the RC valves should go back and forth for testing. But mine only goes one way and stops. If I turn off/on the ignition, it will not move. If I dissconnect the TPS the servo motor turns in the opposite direction to a stopping point. It works eactly the same way with my spare racing PGMIII. Does this sound right? In any case, with the valves perfectly aligned, it seems they do not fully open.
Is there anything else I should double check prior to starting? I have alot of time and money invested in this motor and don't want to mess it up.
