what u mean 3 pistons running at idle, if a piston wasnt moving then changing the carb wouldnt make it go again, sounds like broken piston/rod/gudgeon pin ......

hi guys doing a bit of head porting if anyone has seen the pics, just want to know whether its a good idea to remove the part of the valve guide that protrudes into the port? ive read a few articles saying to remove it so its flush ??? im basically just port matching, turned the head into a 4 port instead of 8 and smoothing out the inner radius to the valve.... is actually quite a extensive port job now i think of it.

bash e with a hammer thats softer than steel either nylon soft hammer or copper if u have it... i found the same problem with my ute ithink from memory i ended up using a steel hammr, damaging the bolts and then just cleaning the thread up with a die nut afterwards... shouldnt damage them too much
