They won't work without the air pump unless you fabricate your own system to open them. The Haynes manual shows you how to put them in. The little pin going across the tube has an alignment mark on it. The book also has schematics of the air hoses and vaccuum hoses. It will show you what is necessary to get them to work.

Correct. Imagine the ACV being the center line of the motor. now Install the sleeve openings away from this Imaginery line. Doing It this way will allow the Actuators, when compressed, to meet at this line.
As for activation, follow an rpm activated method If your sleeve aren't rotating on demand.
Do a search under archives.
