Oops... Thanks George.

Wow, that's dedication... I promise not to tell the Mrs. that you snuck on here the morning of your anniversary!

if there are more than one carb, they need syncronizing because you want the mixture to be the same on all cylinders.

I thought the manifold vacuum took care of making sure that each cylinder got exactly what it needed. I've never touched a CV carb, though.

I have to get on the Internet almost every day as part of my business... I will be taking the missus out for dinner this evening hehe Be a nice evening to take a bike ride I think.

As far as CV carbs, vacuum diaphragms are very sensitive to differences in vacuum in each cylinder. Since each cylinder has a slightly different amount of compression, each cylinder will generate different amounts of engine vacuum and this must be compensated for...
