Sync tool/air adj all 4 carbs-homemade?

[smithbm]

You sure are excited about this project.
A sphygmomanometer is a blood pressure gauge. I don't think the gauge will work because its units of measure are millimeters of mercury (mmHg). I think the vacuum on the carbs will be too high for those units of measure. At the very least it will be too erratic to read. Look for a gauge that is measurable in units of centimeters of mercury (cmHg) or inches of mercury (inHG). Also make sure that it starts at a value (e.g. 30 inHG or 76 cmHg) and has values that decrease clockwise to zero (atmospheric pressure). It also may or may not measure pressure on the other side of the zero mark. I could be wrong though.

Homemade!

Homemade!

Oh S---! I really thought I had something there! My god, how the heck do ya know all that stuff? About which readings to have & what not to have? You some kind'a chemist or something? Or did I not listen, as usual, in school? Well, I know that's true! HA! I wouldn't know the difference if it came up & bit me! Now I think I know what the - you are saying & what kind of gauge I have to be on the-the-look-out for! At least I hope I have you to advise me when & if I ever run into something that looks about right! I may have to let you know before I invest in one, & that way maybe I won't make a mistake, again! Yes, since I got the bike, I can't hardly be comfortable anymore w/o it! It's killing me not to be able to ride it! It's like way back when, when I first , well, discovered girls! HA! After the first, I couldn't wait till the next time I could-, ride my bike again! HA!HA! I found a air box, I think I mentioned, & it doesn't either have the end rubber pieces that fill up the end cover. But I read somewhere in our posts, that somebody made their own, using some kind'a glue or something. But I've tried to find it & naturally I can't find it anywhere! It was some kind'a good stuff that could withstand gas & the such, & not hurt the rubber that it would be touching! I've got one. But not the other! I think I can find some rubber gasket material somewhere & make one, if I can find out what kind'a stick'em to use! Another thing is; the rubber "drain hose 4, on the air box, well, those are real hard on the inside of the box, but good enough to go over the carbs when I get that far. Don't they have to be air tight too? I mean, I noticed where around them, on the outside of the air box, somebody had put something around that hose, they call it, I guess for it to seal & not have any air escaping around them. Is that what I should do, 'cause they are hard & old enough to leak around them? Would it be okay to put some kind'a sealer around them too? If so what would be recommended? I sure hope it'd be all right, 'cause I went ahead & bought the dang thing now! Thanks for your help!!!!!
