Cable routing plus starting issues
Johnny4428:
I bought a set of gauges a number of years ago, when they came home the one gauge glass was broken so contacted the supplier and they sent a replacement gauge. They are not Sealey unfortunately but they are on a similar vane with the different connections etc. Not sure of there accuracy but each gauge had a calibration screw which was handy so I calibrated them all to the same vacuum source, so at least that would give me a sporting chance.😜

How about this?
Mikep328:
Best "gauges" were the mercury tubed ones but I suspect those are no longer sold. There is nothing to "calibrate," gravity ensures that!!
I have a gauge set and calibrated the gauges so they all show the same reading from the same cylinder but I've had the carbs off my 400 3 times and have determined that (IMO) a careful bench sync will have them running perfectly.

Still using my Morgan Carbtune mercury gauges, 30 or so years on. I believe Morgan still sell "vacuum" gauges just not with Mercury in them.

This carbtune pro has been the only way to go for me. These use stainless steel metering rods. I have bench synced many bikes and it gets it close but never spot on as there are many other factors at play. Never skip a vacuum sync.
