Title: Digital Manometer?
Post by: neodude112320 on May 27, 2014, 03:25:24 AM
I'm almost ready to rejet my bike (Thanks Budha) but before I do that, I Figure I should get a manometer to ensure my carbs are balanced.

Does anyone have any experience with Digital Manometers (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Digital-Manometer-Air-Pressure-Meter-Gauge-Auto-Power-off-9V-Battery-Case-/181422490251?pt=AU_B_I_Electrical_Test_Equipment&hash=item2a3d9f828b&_uhb=1)?

Haven't used one to balance carbs as of yet, but most of the new digital ones work fine.  We use them for measuring airflow balance on HVAC systems and pressurised equipment cabinets - they typically self calibrate pretty accurately so I would expect them to do a fine job.

Would also be interested in hearing if anyone has used one on their carbs.
