James and list. A question - a Unisyn, or similar tool, measures air flow, right? And, it is almost always used at idle or high idle. So, the real question is - how often do you drive your car at idl

Using a light and a tool to hold up the carb piston, raise the piston and check the position of the carb butterfly. It should be absolutely at right angles to the bore of the carb throat. I guess you

I agree with Ted. I've always set them to reach WOT at the same time, and then let the idle fall where it may. The idle always seems to work out just fine that way also. Tom _________________________

an added feature of Ted's advice is that examination of WOT from full pedal engagement ensures that the throttle linkage is adjusted to it's full benefit. full engagement can be limited at a couple o

Interesting. I have done both; to make sure that full pedal opens the throttle plates fully and then synching at idle. I guess I have never thought it through that if the throttle plates are even at

Typically, we do the synchronizer routine at idle, first. Then examine full throttle position. Never thought of this check in the terms that Ted presented, but it makes sense, and we will look more c

It makes sense if your carburetors are in very good working order and you spend much of your time at full throttle. However, if the carb bores and throttle edges are showing a little wear from the th

The only way to properly sych the the carbs is with an airflow meter. Your ear is more sensitive to pitch variations than your eye is able to judge the position of carb butterfly valve. _____________

You just have to ask the question, "how often do you drive with your foot flat on the floor?" And if your answer is "often" then you should not be using any "street use" carb setup. And none of the a
