  • Carb Synch Tool EBAY $3.00

    Motion Pro carb synch tool. Looks like the economy model, which to me means that it doesn't have the nice yellow front piece, but who cares. Ebay item #4597547514, or just type in Motion Pro. (whether it's being shipped with the mercury in it, who knows)

    I got an old mercury stick,some of the liquid looks like it hardend in the tube. I think I could clean that out with some wire. Where would you be able to buy mercury? I think nowadays it would be considered a EPA hazarous material and not available to regular folk?

        Nah... that cain't b' right

        My Motion Pro carb synch gizmo came with an ounce bottle of the stuff... and the whole thing cost about $44. I just went to the garage to find the bottle... see if I could find the name of who sells it or sells refills.
        Of course, I had put it in a safe place so that it wouldn't get dumped, opened, or stepped on. Now... if I could just remember which safe place that was!
        Hey... email the seller and ask if it comes with the merc.

          I have gauges, was wondering what kind of place would sell mercury. I tried a list of recyclers, but they all sold by the ton. One person had the price above. I would go out and just get a new stick. Mercury probably would be in school supply or lab supply I think.

            This exactly why I bought the set of 4 vacuum gauges from JC Whitney.. I didn't want the bother of messing with mercury. They might not be as accurate as the mercury gauges, but most of us aren't trying to wring the last available horse from our XS... just to get them running as smoothly and evenly as possible.

              Check with Motion Pro (the company that manufactured my 'carb sticks'). I think they sell the small bottles of mercury as a replacement item.

                  I don't see vac gauges as less accurate than merc levels. MORE accurate if anything. Have the gauges damped precise and the needles flicker with a 2mm movement. Easy to dial in the carbs to perfection with them.
