This can be caused by a loose "swedge plug", loose or leaking valve body / gasket or a mis calibrated "economiser valve". DD |

(idle , cruze and power) These blocks have a bunch of small passageways, check-balls, air bleeds and plugs so any clog, loose part(s), a crack or warp, corrosion or leaking gasket can cause trouble. 1920 metering blocks are fussy things and hard to service, best to "swap-in" a different one then waste a bunch of time troubleshooting / repairing one that is not working correctly.
