Could hook a fuel pressure gauge up to it and see what it's doing. Seems a bit odd that it would behave the same with the AFM unplugged, so that could be the next thing to check. Otherwise ya have TPS or ECU playing up, at a guess. Don't think any other sensor will have that adverse effects on engine running.

Far out you are making some wicked progress! Almost motivating me to do something on mine... Almost...

Blocked fuel filter perhaps?

They can, but it is generally frowned apon

Probably won't be as good as dynamat but will still be a lot better than nothing at all

Oh dude that sucks hard. Hope it's fixable aye

When the intake valve is closed, there's no flow through it. When it opens, there is. Not too sure why you're stating the obvious here.. When the valve closes, you have the momentum of the air still in it heading towards the valve. It then bounces, more or less, off the closed valve, creating the pressure wave that spencer was talking about. Also, a misti engine tends to rev higher than a big fat 8, making its usable power up higher, and therefor has a higher intake velocity. Big v8s are usually geared a lot lower, so their engine revs at the same vehicle speed is lower, meaning lower intake velocity. On top of that you haven't taken into account the specific design of the ports, valves, or anything else at all.

Isn't inertia a constant? Sounds more like you're talking about momentum..

yuh Sort a date

Got a book here about head porting, Practical Gas Flow by John Dalton, it's more aimed at older head designs (and was published in '89 anyway) but still makes for a good read none the less. Has a lot of flow bench experiments (made from a vacuum cleaner) to measure flow at different speeds etc

Nah that's a tap knob. This is a real gear knob Lowlancer probably knows all there is to know about this style, so I wouldn't be doubting him too quickly if I were you. Also the style of the wheel plays just as big a part as the dish in which they contain.

Never thought of that actually, my fuel line is held on with cable ties.

Possibly a breather hole, allows air into the tank as the fuel level drops.

i think im getting confused as to what the pressure plate is...i thought the pressure plate sat against the flywheel, and the the clutch cover over that (clutch cover has the fingers) and the the release bearing comes in contact with the fingers of the clutch cover??? or am i confusing my self? any nah i dont have the hunter anymore... Don't really know what would be going on, maybe the wrong bearing? if it's not wide enough it may not be fully disengaging the clutch. Very unlikely though.

Does the clutch feel like it's working correctly? And you took the whole clutch assembly apart and put it back together and it still isn't working? If it's hydraulic have ya bled it? Or adjusted correctly? Can't think of anything else

Yep reverse works. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=15127&p=335741&hilit=clutch#p335741

Has it been sitting for awhile? Had the same happen with my hillman, it had seized up from sitting around for ages. Fixed it by ripping the handbrake up hard, in neutral, engine running, clutch in and slamming it into gear. Should break it free / break something else. Worked fine for me though, if it doesn't the engine will just stall. May take a couple of attempts to free it up

It'll probably need a bigger pulley on the alternator to drop its revs down a bit.

5 degrees out for the cam gears i think. Dunno which way though

Well there's your problem.. Just kidding, hopefully we'll see this at a meet sometime.

You have another ms63? Giz

Got the plugs on in the right order?

I'd throw a guess to say that the high input signal would be a pulse from the dizzy? Other then that, I don't really know

Mate got his car blasted and it came out mint as. Not too sure what they blasted it with, don't think it was soda but it def wasn't sand. They did a bloody good job though
