c       Chris, These are indicator tools that help in adjusting
        carbs. Uni-syn measure the air flow to the carbs so both 
        are drawing the same amount of air. It is placed over the 
        opening of the carb and you adjust the idle screw to obtain 
        a mid range reading. Then placed over the other carb and 
        adjust to obtain the same reading. You are adjusting air
        intake. Colourtune is for ajusting the fuel mixture. It is
        a glass spark plug which is used inplace of one of the 
        plugs and as the jet is ajusted, rich or lean, the color
        of the burning gases in the combustion chamber can be 
        seen. You adjust the color per the directions that come with 
        the device.
