I left it like this perminantely. as was mentioned, when racing, Im never at below 3700rpm, and flappy only helps 3200rpm to 3700rpm.
I was tired of traking down the electrical issue of why flappy was intermittant. finally, i just hard vacuum "wired" the flappy actuator. when i do the engine replacement, ill just pull out the guts.

PS The mechanic answer when I ask him about the Timing Belt Tensioner Tool: ''Who needs a tool in order to check the correct tension, my hand is the best tool''
And the funny thing is that he did it this way for 10+ years now and no one have any problems!!!

Update.
I order a new vacuum actuator and the timing belt tension tool from www.928sRus.com on Friday and I received on Monday, US to Greece, great servise Roger, thanks for all
We put the new M.M.s (from Roger again and only 3 days delivery also)
We put the new vacuum actuator
We check the belt with out the covers and it was perfect in any way, marks and all, looks like my mechanic was right and have a very good hand!
The car now is like new, the ride is much better with the new MM, no vibes no nothing and the power on high RPMs is like 50HP more or something!
Thank you all for your great help.

Fast at shipping and slow at invoicing - what more could a customer want 8>)
Glad it worked out well.
