87 13b/acv block off?

I am new to rotarys, so very new that when i did a search and read about blocking off the acv port, that i didnt understand many differences between s4, s5, ect.

I have used a block off plate to cover where my acv went and have removed the air pump. On my particular rotary do i have to do anything else to get the other ports to open?

note: this motor is going in a buggy so there is no factory wiring or a/c ect.

Well, if you have an S4 (years 1986-1988), then the 5th and 6th ports are actuated by exhaust backpressure. On the other hand, if you have an S5 (years 1989-1991), you have disabled your 5th and 6th ports. They are actuated by the air pump.

The air signal for the 89-91 VDI and aux ports, does come from the ACV though. If he has a 89-91 and removes the ACV then he will need to jury rig something from the air pump to get the aux ports and VDI to work correctly.
