My experience with the hookup. Looked at the possibility of removing the metric plugs on each side of the manifold and going that route. Problem was that I couldn't find a source for the "metric nipples" to hook up to each feed from the unit. Also wasn't overjoyed with trying to "crimp off" the heavy hose on one end of the balance tube thinking how would one know if you were truly isolated etc. So I went off to my local *National Aviation Parts Association* (NAPA) and looked over the plastic fittings board. Found two fittings that would fit into the ID of the crossover hose (I'm sure it's metric) Bought two clamps and found a short piece of hose that would let me hook up the other end - with me so far.. Hooked it all up and found that I was almost right on - the led in the most sensitive setting was "one out to the right". So decided that after the cables stretch in use and seat I'd get back to fine tune it all. In ten hours all seems smoooooth at all RPMS. My question - if the LED lite is one out to the right, right hose on right carb side, which carb and which way would you adjust the cable mounting to center the LED and get a smiley face??? Longer or shorter...which side?? As always a long way to ask a question but hope I answered a couple as well.
