the m20 bar doesn't get loose, DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN IT this will break the boss it's screwed into, i have a fix but i am not sure if it can be done with the cam installed, the bar can be sparayed out with carb cleaner and the holes poked clean with a pick or other pointy object. crappy idle with the cap off is normal, the m20 has a closed crank case and any blow by is sucked into the intake, any signifigant air leak will screw with the injection system just like any other vacuum leak

i really appreciate everyones help. i cant win for losing. i figured i would check the oil press, borrowed a co-workers' oil press gauge for the weekend. removed the sending unit to find that his set does not have the metric coupler to fit my motor. drove around all day to no avail. checked several stores,nobody has it. does anyone know where i can get the adapter/fitting to check my oil press? again thanks
i just use a generic add on op gauge they usually come with several adaptors and enough tubeing to get it to a safe area to watch, i've been using the same one for several years and they are cheep enough to throw away
