Bring it back, assemble and a little starter fluid through the air intake did the trick! 
One thing I noticed was the idle was great and adjusted the idle to nearly 2000RPM using the idle screw.
But, here is the thing - if I kept the throttle FULLY TURNED, the engine revs up to 6000RPM and revs down to 4000. Revs up and down and so on...what may be wrong?
Shall I try putting some fuel injector (lucas) and turn up the engine to a high idle? will this do the trick.
At this point, it starts and idles fantastic. woohoo 
I will let the breather be and undo my surgery (connecting the breather to the intake-manifold line). thanks. |
Nice! Yea, I suspect it has something to do with your hose surgery assuming it ran fine before. Almost there!
