    Just got my sync tool, but....

    I won the tool on ebay and just got it yesterday. Whooo hooo. Steve has already said that he would help me out with the mercury I needed, but now that I have it I found out that the seller didn't ship it with the adapters to put into the manifold to hook it up. Any suggestions on what I could use, Where I could get some, How I could make some? Thanks guys, a few more ducks to get in a row and I should be riding again soon.

    i think that carb jets screw into the manifold and that you can put the hose over them....

      If that's true, post it in the "Tips & tricks" forum.

        Cyclereycle sells adapters in 4 packs for the synch tools. Just go to the tools section and scroll down, theyre about at the bottom of the page.

          Thanks for the tips, I think I may try the jet thing tomorrow and let you know how it works. Otherwise I may just get the adapters off cyclerecycle. Do you think I'd be able to get some generic aluminum or plastic nipples and a die that matches the bolt thats in there?

          Now if anyone around the Phoenix area would like to sync thier carbs, I'll have a working tool in about a week and you're more than welcome to come by and try it out on your bike as well.

            Dont fart around with the jets or a die or whatever, just order the darn parts from www.crc2onlinecatalog.com and be done with it.you will only have to wait 5 days then you will be able to do it right!Learn from experience not impatience.
