But there are two connections where I am not sure about their usage. Please find the attached picture. - The right connection goes to the upper three Cylinders. My assumption is, that is used for priming the engine before start. - The left connection looks like it's connected to the supercharger housing. So, perhaps there is a pressure gauge connected Can someone confirm this? many thanks Robert Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=501512#501512 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/img_20210425_115136_202.jpg ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 10:29:50 AM PST US From: "Walter Lannon" Subject: Re: M14PEngines-List: M462RF connection question Hi Robert; I believe you have it nailed. The LH one is manifold pressure. Though I have never seen an M462 I can assure you the other is engine prime. The Czech's are smart enough to copy Pratt & Whitney here and avoid the huge mistake of the Russian and Chinese in dumping it into the blower case so it can flow down give you a hydraulic lock in (usually) #5 cyl.
