    Carb sync tool advice needed

    Hey guys, I'm finally going to break down and buy a carb sync tool. Motion pro offers a "cheapy" for about $45 and the "shop" model for about $75...I would just as soon get the cheaper one if it will work just as well. So, what do you think? Should I spend the extra money?? Thanks, in advance!:-D

      I've had the cheapy for two years and it works really well.

                      Get the cheap one and buy a carb screwdriver to go with it cause you will need it.

                          Most of these tools are no longer available. Effective July 1st, the transportation of Mercury is prohibited in 4 states without a special license. As this includes California, MotionPro (which is in CA) has stopped selling / shipping any of the Mercury filled sync tools.

                          You might be able to find them as old stock in a few places, but we have not been able to buy these for several months now.

                          Supposedly MotionPro will continue selling the high end tool WITHOUT Mercury, but them you have to find a source for that stuff.
