I use the PVC tube setup from the tech tip, and one single vacuum gage (my Mity-vac). I just move the tube from carb to carb. It is slower, but I am very comfortable with the accuracy level. It is actually more accurate than the 4 gage method as there is no variance in the readings from gage to gage. Just another method.

I use the MotionPro sync tool and didn't have any problems with it. It does take patience. Do it once and you will be good for awhile. I would do it at the very least once a year. Bought the carbtune last year but never adjusted them. I will be doing it sometime soon tho. The Carbtune sounds pretty good too. All depends on how much you wanna spend. They will all work, some may be a bit easier and others a bit more accurate. Anything with less bounce will be more accurate. The MotionPro does bounce a tad which is the reason for the necessity for patience

In any moment of decision the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.

yep
yeah, that was the first thing i tried initally, but was unable to hear the change clearly, and my dwell meter has gone missing. i dont really think the synch is far off, but its the mixture i need to adjust richerMax
