Thanks, Bob -- the bung is clearly the way to go!
Paul - I have a choice of a steel bung for $5.95 & a stainless bung for
$6.95. Any reason to pick one over the other? (In terms of weld-ability
I
mean).

Go with the SS. Do you have a scope? I might be able to bring mine
if not. We need to get a handle on this intake pulsation problem.

I do not have an oscilloscope. Let me post a message to the local EAA'rs &
see if I can scare one up.
mrs
Great Mark. Maybe Doc has one. We can trigger off the crank angle sensor
signal.
