Scott  et al.:

I learned to tune SUs many years ago with the hose in the ear method and it
seems to work fine for me. There is a knack to it, but with some relaxed
practice I believe most can learn to do it.

My No. 1 son has a Colortune rig and tunes his 1600 coupe satisfactorily. I
am R/G color blind though, and try as I might, I absolutely cannot
differentiate the colors he shows me when he adjusts his carbs.

Has anyone used the Uni-Syn tool? It looks like a neat gadget to me.
