Off with its head (s)!!! (Read 52311 times)

Matchless Omega Knight Offline Posts: 1746 Nottingham Gender: Drives: The one at the end of the drive	Re: Off with its head (s)!!! Reply #240 - 01. Apr 2009 at 23:12 It didnt seem to like snap throttle and reported idle seemed to vary much more than the engine note suggests it should. I wonder if a strobe would show up any timing wander? Ive got one if you can get to the HT to trigger it.

Apr 2009 at 08:17 Got to the bottom of the poor running yesterday. MAF sensor, proved by borrowing a certain other members off here....and it made it go pretty well! So, that needs to be sourced.

Apr 2009 at 13:41 I am tempted to do something similar when I get back to the UK later this year. I might even go as far as taking the whole lump out and refurbing gearbox, sump and heads with 3.0 cams, etc. Watching this thread has given me some good insight as it will the biggest engine I will have done anything like this on... thanks Mark
