    Manometer tips?

    I have a new manometer/carb tuning kit from motion pro I need to use badly. I have read the manual in the book and am going to try it Sunday time providing. But I am not sure how to get to all the little adjuster bolts with everything mounted. Anyone have any tips on doing this?

    carb tuner

    Hi,
    I just got one myself. Its really easy to use. The adaptors for my 81 GS850G just screwed into the vacuum ports on the side of the intake tubes. I just used what came with it, no adaptors.

      Take off the tank, plug up the vacuum port to the petcock, and fashion some sort of remote gas source - some people use a funnel. You are going to want to warm up the engine before messing around with the sync. Getting to the adjusters is a royal pain which is why Motion Pro sells a $20 tool for this. Yea, kind of a rip. But after trying to fuss around with doing the job without it, it's not such a bad value.

        Actually, you can just take the tank off, remove the vacuum line, install a longer fuel line and set the petcock to prime. Put the tank on a bench or something higher than the carbs and you won't have to rig anything for fuel delivery.

        That being said, I rigged up a one gallon fuel can with a valve epoxied into it, I can set that on top of the seat and test things that way. Easier than trying to balance a tank.
