Don;t forget to test your fuel system for leakes. I have 2 pin holes and it took me days to troubleshoot the heat problems.

Indeed, I would say that is most likely the problem u are having; as even the smallest of cracks and/or pinholes can cause a tuning and/or fuel problem issue such as what u are describing....
