How to synchronize your throttle bodies.

A TB synch will make your engine run smoother and happier. If your bike is old or you've adjusted the valves, it's probably past time that you do this. These instructions are specific to the FZ6,...

Wow, that liquid looks much smoother than the steel rods in the Morgan Carbtune Pro, How often do they need syncronizing?, is it worth a bike owner getting one. My ZX9r runs real rough at low revs, I think carbs are tuned for racecan it no longer has?, could it be that or valve clearances and carbs need syncing?

steel rods? More like mercury. new carb sync bars use alcohol with food coloring. old ones used mercury.

No apparently it is steel rods in the Morgan ones, see the website, They are suppossed to be better for the reason that the gauges can be led down in a drawer or used upside down for low compression bikes like BMWs etc, they are not allowed to use Mercury anymore I believe, but I think the alcohol ones that you speak of do look more acurate and smoother..

Im new to this and want to try. How do you know what hose goes to which hose on the bike? I realize you said the pink band is for cylinders 1 and 4 but how do you know where all 4 individual hoses go? I have an FZ6 as well.

Thanks and great video.

The cylinders are numbered 1-2-3-4 from left to right as you're sitting on the bike. Hoses 1 and 2 are on the left, 3 and 4 are on the right.

Connecting them in order is mainly important to prevent your confusion. If you hook them up in 4,1,3,2 or whatever order you want, you can still get a good synch, so long as you remember which is which when making adjustments.

My memory sucks, so I hook them up in order.

Great thanks. I guess if i bought the motion pro id have to get the 6mm adapter kit, no? Silly that its not included. At least it comes with the morgan carbtune but i like how you can adjust the levels on this before hand.

Thats a good point. I would rather have a lumpy idle and smooth midrange.
