TwinMax - Electronic Carb / Fi Balancing Tool

Carburetor balance, or synchronization, is essential for the efficiency and longevity of your engine. Any imbalance in the timing, or amount, of throttle opening amongst the carburetors on your engine will result in reduced performance, poor response, excessive fuel consumption, increased vibration and increased stress on the crankshaft and bearings. With the TWINMAX, all these problems can be eliminated resulting in a responsive and smooth motor.

Other balancers use either dial gauges or tubes containing mercury or spring loaded weights with one gauge per cylinder and any adjustments to the carburetors are made according to the readings on each of these gauges. This means that not only is there the potential for errors to due to the moving parts of each gauge, it is very difficult to ensure that each gauge gives exactly the same reading on a given amount of vacuum, due to variances in manufacturing tolerances, friction differences, volumes of mercury or tension of springs.

The TWINMAX is different. The TWINMAX works by comparing the vacuum present on either side of a single pressure sensor and shows this difference as a meter reading. The carburetor being calibrated at that time is then adjusted until there is no deviation on the meter! No potential errors and only one reading to make at any time!

Synchronizing carburetors with the TWINMAX is simple, quick and gives professional level accuracy every time !
