    Tom,<br>
    <br>
    I don't have mine handy, but from memory:<br>
    <br>
    The two black plastic rod-looking things go into the center of the
    vacuum pistons. In those go the 90-deg bent wires. With these you
    can see the pistons rise and fall, so as to even airflow. They also
    allow ballpark 1/32 piston lifts to check mixture.<br>
    <br>
    The small brass plug-looking thing is a jet-centering tool that goes
    in place of a jet; very handy if you're doing a complete overhaul
    and replacing the jets.<br>
    <br>
    By far the most useful tool is the small wrench that looks like the
    tool some people use to floss; it's the only way I can get to the
    jet adjusting nuts on my BN2. Any other tool--wrench, pliers,
    etc.--would be almost impossible to use with the carbs on the car.<br>
    <br>
    All in all, a simple but useful collection of tools. Did I miss any?<br>
    <br>
