Tim,
Thanks. We agree on how it works with just an input pump and various
scenarios of the engine running, not running, in a gear, not in a gear, etc.

implies that there was only a pump on the output side - otherwise there
would not have been a qualifier about "both input and output" ... which is
why I was asking how that particular scenario worked.
Your thoughts?
