Carb sync tool opinions

[Guest]

Now that I am the proud owner of 3 GS I have decided to ditch my homemade carb sync tool and invest in a real tool. My question is which one should I get. Motion pro seems ok but as an avionics technician the vacume gauges look better. They're both about the same cost, my only concern is technically the gauge set should be calibrated where the motion pro gets balanced every use.

Opinions?

Morgan carbtune is a favorite around here.

probably more foolproof but if setup properly nothing the gauge sets can't do . You have to adjust the bleeders to reduce intake pulsing. Biggest issue I have with my gauges is cheap vacume line that des integrated

Carbtune for the win

I have the dubious pleasure of owning all but the analog gauges (although I have used them before). I have the MotionPro unit with the blue fluid, a set of true mercury sticks (with SIX columns ), the Morgan Carbtune and the official Suzuki ball gauge.

I don't use the MotionPro unit because one of the columns has a leak, meaning I only have three columns available.

The Suzuki gauge looks good, but is a bit of a pain to use, as it has to be calibrated every time before use.

The Carbtune is a great unit and is the perfect tool for portable use.

In the shop, though, I will reach for the mercury sticks first. Not only does it not need calibrating, it is the standard to which any other gauge is calibrated. They are self-damping, so no restrictors are necessary. Just don't tip it past horizontal so mercury falls out, and it is the perfect tool.

My recommendation? Get the Carbtune.

No question here,get a Morgan Carbtune.IMO the best way is to get one direct from Morgan as they're shipping rates are great.Get the case to,it's as nice as the Carbtune.

Ditto Morgan carbtune.

Morgan Carbtune and a set of decent brass adapters from Z1. Some people are surprised by the cost but they're the right tool for the job and will last longer than you.

Carb Wood!!!homemade monometer and bore bar stand.jpg
Thats what its called??? Made of wood quick connect fittings and machined brass adaptors, Used it to try to get my New Lectrons to idle at 1200 or so rpm but...well 2000 isnt bad anyhow . It seems to work as well as my mercury sticks i had which had the glass go funny cracks everywhere??? MThanx Mike
