suspect an air leak timbo .. less evident when cold ..then more noticeable warm .. the " t" piece beneath the manifolds .. the breather pipes running under the manifolds or more likely the " o" rings where you have reconnected the inlet tracts ..also check the EGR valve at the rear of drivers side manifold ..<did you have trouble with that ?> .. keep us informed please ... regards ...STN
