did you ride the clutch or did you have it all the way out?

That’s less power than my starter motor, wish I could help you dude but we really do need some better information.

You should start with your most recent mods and what you have been tampering with lately.

Did that 200m drive feel ok? You need to determine if it does not have power or cannot put it to the floor, clutch slipping would increase revs.
Please test your clutch even if you feel it is not the problem as you already mentioned a lack of power prior to this.

what did you connect the boost gauge to, you might have a Vac leak via the pressure reg ?, which will cause bad fuel pressure

you should just change it back to see if thats the problem, the cannon shouldnt effect it unless its 1" version even then it will still drive ok

no shouldnt be turbo as its low rpm with no load. - no boost really.

just check and recheck all lines and plugs and check the timing light :)

Nah that wont be the problem, Although i would get that fixed. Ive gone through 4 pairs of injectors and they pretty well all leak. What happens if you disconnect the AFM while idling, then take it for a drive?

well i still think the injecters still have somthing to do with it .... if there leaking that means theres no presure witch is given the car less power ..... the AFM as in that chunky air box thing ... if i take that off or open it the car stalls / dies cant take it off wen the car is running .....

forgot to add somthing sorry ..... firstly all the vac lines ect are all clean no slits or cracks ..... secondly with the injecters when i checked them i put them back together and tried starting the car it wouldnt start .... and a shit load of fuel is SQUIRTING out of the plugs ...... hence why i think this may be the problem .... the rings have never been changed so they pretty much been in there for 25 years lol :|
