    carb synch

    i bought a newish one . from some one of craigslist. its a motion pro..
    any way the damn thing is leaking .. has any one on here got one, merc.. type..
    this is what i need
    amount of mercury needed for it to be used properly.

    and wether or not to use the air intake at the back of it when stting up.

    i got a hold of m .pro they dont sell em any more. and the new guy who bought there old stock is a wee bit of a jerk.
    so any help on the above would be real nice ..
    thanx

      Basically, you are screwed because you can't LEGALLY buy mercury anymore. Buy a different set of gauges & if you used PayPal, file a claim. Ray.

          Upgrade the thermostats in your house and use the mercury from the switch in the old thermostat!

                      No need to seal the tube fitting, it is necessary as a vent.

                      For quantity, you are looking for about 1 fluid ounce of mercury. I use about 1 1/2 ounces in mine, but I have a six-column set.
