Hmmmmmmmm.   Im brainstorming here.  Lets see.............How does the engine 
sound?  What i am thinking of is an exhaust leak.   But not just any exhaust 
leak.  Im thinking of one very close to the head.  Like maybe a big crack in 
the exhaust manifold, or the gasket where the manifold meets the head.  Wait 
till the engine is cold, start it up and feel around there for a leak, not to 
look cuz that sucker gets hot real quick.  Also check to make sure the C02 
tap tube still has the rubber cover on it and its not leaking also..   Good 
luck bro.
