    Yes, look in the FAQ forum section for Rick-o-matics old school carb synch. It tells you haw to do it, make the gauge, etc.

    Well sorta, but no, all carbs are sync-ed to #3 while running.

    Unless you're talking about a bench sync, which adjusts each buterfly to a specific setting, done one at a time.

    Afterwards you always do a running sync. Doing all 4 at the same time. Or two at a time, depending on the technique. Or one at a time, using the one gauge technique.

    Before Gang Nanometers were invented; you HAD to use ONE Gauge.

    I learned how to do it from a Tech who used a Yellow China Marker to Mark the face of the Vacuum Gauge.

    The MOST Important factor for doing a ONE GAUGE SYNC is:
    You MUST fabricate and use a VACUUM LINE RESTRICTOR!
    Otherwise the Needle on the Vacuum Gauge is going to be fluctuating so wildly it will be useless.

    Get a "Union" used to join to sections of hose together.
    Stick a Carb Cleaner Red Tube through it.
    Fill the Union with Epoxy.
    When the Epoxy dries ... Cut off the ends leaving the Restrictor you need.
