vacuum port adaptors
I know some of you guys have made your own vacuum adaptors for carb sync, I was hoping for some info on how you do this. Thinking of taking on the infamous home made manometer project.Tags: None -

Get 4 bolts of the correct diameter & thread pitch, about 2-3 inches long & drill a hole in the center. Cut the heads off & you have your adapters! You will need access to a lathe or need someone that does but, even if you have to pay someone, it should be cheap. Ray.Comment

Wouldn't it be easier to thread some brass tube? I made some from thick wall brass tube and threaded the end. Use a nut and washer to mount to the port threads.Comment

How about you just PM me your address and I'll drop these in the mail....
(Unless that takes all the DIY fun out of it)

I bought a spare set when I got my motion pro and now I have a morgan unit on the way, so I don't need 'em...Bob T. ~~ Play the GSR weekly photo game: Pic of Week Game

As nice as the Morgan Carbtune is, the crappy black plastic adaptors included with it are a royal pain in the ... fingers.
The brass tubes make things MUCH easier. I use my old Motion Pro brass tubes with a Morgan Carbtune, and life is grand.1983 GS850G, Cosmos Blue.

Question Guys
I bought these from Motion Pro but am wondering what you use to cap them when not in use? I thought I saw someone post it a while back but cant find the thread. I am thinking that caps rather than stoppers like motion pro shows
Thanks AllComment

Thanks Baatfam Guess I was thinking of them as a permanent addition but that does make more sense. I was wondering why the 6 mm came with the little white stoppers and the 5 mm didn'tComment
