Marv,
I suspect you are applying power directly to the flap motor.   In the
recommended flap circuit, the relays place a short across the motor when
power is removed,  which greatly reduces coasting.

PS:  Strangely enough,  I have a 1986 150WOG dump valve which has never
leaked.  When I turn on the master after 24hrs,  most of the time the pump
does not come on.


[Thanks, Bob, you've hit the nail on the head.  Testing the actuator
didn't require the complete flap circuit and had I had the sense to look
at the schematic I would have found the answer.  Besides, it's a lot
easier (and  more fun) to toss out these 'pop quizzes' every now and again,
just to make sure that we're all paying attention <G>.  Thanks again.
