OIl metering pump shaft in front oil cover question?
I just recently bought a 1989 Turbo II which was in pieces and I putting it all together.
I found that the front oil cover did not have the gear assemble for the electronic oil metering pump.
I reinstalled a new gear and noticed that there is a tension pin that is supposed to go on the front oil cover right about in the middle of the gear shaft. I cannot figure out what it's purpose is because it looks like I can get away from putting it in. It's not listed on the 1989 parts catalogue.
Do I need to reinstall this tension pin?
1st picture is one of my S4 motors that shows the pin installed.
