The bouncing reading of the airflowmeter should not be linked to whatever other problems you mention; bad link, idle secrews or jets. But, it might be linked to the reversion.

My first thoughts are:

- any leakage in the runner (from mouth of air horns down to the valve)?
- is the valve opening correctly? Lift and duration as it should? (worn knocker or whatevever)
- is cylinder vacum and compression pressure correct?

I did have a same kind of problem with 2 x DCOE once, fuel came out of one of the carbs, dripping. I think the solution to this was to connect one vacum line from each runner into a single line for brakes and dist. vacum (although I didn't get to test this). Of the 4 runners, 1 gave vacum to the brakes, 1 to the dist.

So, if you run any vacum lines from that cylinder, that may also be a part of the problem.
