I used 2 stroke oil for the fluid. Having all 4 together was messy and inaccurate so I did 2 carbs at a time. I synced 2-3 then 3-4 and then 1-2. It runs like a different animal now. Idle is much more stable and it is easier to start. Smooth through the entire range. For a home made sync tool it worked fantastically.

I think w CV carburetors, one method is to sync them in pairs: 1-2, then 3-4, then sync 1/2 & 3/4 as a pair.ironslave wrote: Ok got my carbs synced and adjusted my idle and pilot valves and now it runs like a champ.
