Re: [T3] Carb synchro tool
<x-flowed>No, just one. You take a reading from all the carbs and get the one
with the lowest "reading". Sync the other carbs to the reading of the
one (base-line) carb. If they're all outta whack then you tune one carb
then the rest to that initial carb.
Mine came w/instructions so I follow them. If it gets to be too much I
let my carb expert take over (Brian Fye a.k.a. vwfye). Yes, linkage
adjustments are but one part of syncing carbs ;-)

Guys, I've never used a tool like this before, and my new engine has
dual Webers, so I am gonna have to learn! Would you use two of these
units to synch an engine with dual carbs? Aren't you really making sure
they both open up at the same time (and the same amount)? Would this
not be linkage-dependant?
