    GUNSON Colortune???



    Is this the same as the MORGAN Colortune? Interested but when I eBayed MORGAN Colortune, got this.

    Thanks,

    I recently used a Gunson colortune on my 850. Half an hour later had a smooth running engine. Make sure the carbs are balanced beforehand and just follow the instructions. Best bit of kit I've bought in a while.

      Did Morgan actually produce one, or did they just sell the Gunson unit?

      Either way, it will be the same thing.

        Not sure if Gunson sold it to Morgan, but it's the real thing.

          I purchased my Gunson Colortune directly from the Morgan Carbtune website, so Morgan is probably reselling. Regardless, like Grimly said, it's the real deal.

            Don't these only test the pilot circuits?

            It's not like you can use them on the road at WOT with a load on.

              i use it to check part throttle and mid throttle opening, so you can get a pretty good idea on pilot jets and needle settings.

                Even better, anything that can get an extra 1/10 HP outta the old Isetta 300 has to be worth the money. Are these as quick off the line as a Can An Spyder?????

                Got my Colortune in the mail yesterday, can't wait to try it once I get everything else lined up right.

                Letcha know,
