Turbo swap to RX2 (oil metering pump)
Sorry if this info is somewhere else...but I couldn't find it. Anyway, I swapped a Cosmo turbo motor into an RX2 but overlooked the oil metering pump issue (hopefully a non-issue due an easy fix in thei thread). I had to use the older front cover to fit the cross member motor mount for the RX2. This front cover doesn't have the same type of oil metering pump assembly to connect to the fuel injection as the carb type. Does anyone have suggestions on how to fab one to work with the fuel injected throttle body? Some have said to just tie it up so it is half open all the time. Wouldn't this cause it to constantly run rich off boost, and not feed enough oil under boost? I also wanted to stay away from pre-mixing the gas so I can just fill up at a station with no worries.
Thanks!
Thanks!
