i have a 72 TR6 with triple carbs.  the engine now has about 400 miles on i=
t, and i am pretty sure the carbs are too rich.


i am aware of the lift-a--piston method of tuning the carbs.


i am wondering if it is worth getting a gunson tuning setup or what is the =
best method for ensuring the carbs are correctly tuned.


i know i need to ascertain the valve gap and timing first.
