Carb balancing gauges - Cheeky borrow?
« on: 29 June 2016, 03:41:15 pm »
Hi All,

Has anyone (anywhere near NW London) got a set of carb balancing gauges I could borrow?

I'd rather buy someone on here a handful of beers and borrow theirs, than spend on a set that I'll rarely use. I'll only need it over weekend.

Cheers! :)

Brett

You still need to balance throttle bodies just as you do with carbs  ;) ;)
