    Carb Synch Tool, Any Suggestions?

    I have the motion pro "economy" carb tool. Cost me $45 bucks from cycle world in londonderry.

    Works well, was cheap, and allowed me to synch my carbs the same day I screwed them up thinking the carb synch screw was the throttle cable adjustment screw

    Motion pro makes a more accurate one too, with more graduations on the tubes, in a slightly more durable case. This one is plenty accurate for me though, the mercury bounces enough from the combustion action that there's a limit to how much useful accuracy you can get with any tool...

    I got their 'DELUXE' model. Just based on the pictures & descript, I went with the 'upgrade'. Can't remember the cost, but I got mine from LP. That's LP folks. That's right, LP....

    I have a tool I bought from the UK called the Carbtune II. It works great, and it doesn't contain mercury. It was a bit more expensive, but worth it in my opinion, to not have to deal with the possible contamination. Also no chance of sucking anything into your engine.

    I have this one too. It's been a while since I ordered it, but IIRC it arrived in about a week.
