I'm wondering about the same thing. I removed the aluminum plate I made to
cover the flat area where the injector pump goes. Looking inside I see the
end of the shaft hole. Just to the left of the large hole is a small 3/16
hole. The ends of both holes are blocked by the aluminum cover. Does this
block any bypass?
