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.

Ok, picture of the engine bay



The Lambda sensor mounted in its new home!



The front section showing the engine under tray fitted



And no spare bits (that I can find!)

So there you go Mick, you can sleep easier now!

Thanks Mark :y...Job well done :y

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.

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 :y
