Hi Bob,

The AAV just provides fast idle until the coolant starts to warm up. It'll start just as well without it -- you'll just have to keep it running with the gas pedal for a minute or two before it'll idle on its own.

Rotating the wires on the cap is fine, but if you do decide to pull the drive gear and set it over a tooth or two, all you need to do is turn the motor by hand while applying *slight* downward pressure on the gear so you can feel it line up with the slot in the oil pump.
