Anyone that missed out on a great tool, apparently it's close to be ready to be reproduced. I love mine.

Can you explain how this is better (other than taking up a bit less space to store) than the fluid in the tubes manometer that you can make at home for a few bucks? I've used one of the tube manometers for years and have never had an issue with balancing the carbs/throttle bodies.Anyone that missed out on a great tool, apparently it's close to be ready to be reproduced.

It just makes life easier... that is all.Can you explain how this is better (other than taking up a bit less space to store) than the fluid in the tubes manometer that you can make at home for a few bucks?

Please enlighten an ignorant old coot
I too have the Morgan Carbtune. I went with it because it looks to be a modern version of the old mercury balancers I've used in the past. Other than Harmonizers ease of use, it is no more accurate than any other synchronizing device. It is a pretty slick tool for sure.I found the info over at ADVRider in the oldcool furum, BMW airhead thread just by luck. How it is better? It just works better and is just so easy to use. I didn't think I needed one, as I have the Morgan Carbtune that works pretty good, but not near as precise and accurate as the Harmonizer.
How can you be sure the Morgan carbtune was off and not the Harmonizer?I think the price originally was in the $140 area. If it can be built and sold for the $165 price,, that seems real fair to me. After Grok died, his kids sold the remainder of what he had built on ebay, and they were going for $250-$350.
I still believe it to be better than the Morgan or other methods. I always keep close eye on any adjustments I make, and since I had the Morgan carbtune, at 4000 miles I hooked it up and it took like 1/6 turn of a TB screw to indicate perfect, then by luck I bought a used harmonizer like 100 miles later and hooked it up. It told me to return the screw back right where it was previously, so to me that meant the carbtune was not as accurate and actually making me adjust a little worse than what it was. I'm sure 1/6 turn is pretty insignificant and probably not even noticable, but just info to share.
Because the Harmonizer goes to 11.How can you be sure the Morgan carbtune was off and not the Harmonizer?
