[Mgs] hesitation

[Charley & Peggy Robinson]

   Did this "professional" balance the air flow through the carbs at 
idle with the interconnecting linkage slackened off?   That's what is 
meant by balancing.  I've never seen it done right without an air flow 
meter.

   Now I'll catch it from all those who aver that they "don't need no 
stinkin' gauge."    Flame suit on....... :-)
