Techron soak and carb sync

[Donvito]

First I filled the carbs with straight Techron per Gary's advice. Then I synced the carbs with my home made synchronizer. (picture included). This solved my problems except for a deceleration backfire which is probably due to an exhaust leak which I am not too concerned about.

 

If anyone lives in my area, Palm Harbor, FL, and wants to stop by to sync their carbs just give me a call at 727-504-7028 or send me a private message and I'll be happy to help. Just want to repay all the help I've gotten from you guys.

 

My side cover vent finally bit the dust. Has anyone done a cheap and easy fix? I just want to keep it covered and don't care about opening it.

 

Thanks again. [ATTACH]77033[/ATTACH]

What fluid did you use in your home-made (manometer) synch tool? And, does it have restrictors in the vinyl tubing near the intake?

Inquiring minds want to know.......

Transmission fluid and no restrictors. The level in the tubes stays pretty steady.

I put a piece of clear plexiglass in the opening and held it in place with very small zip ties. I put the ties thru the holes where the old fins pivoted. Then put some LED lights behind the clear plastic.
