I prefer buying two Colortunes at once and placing them side by side in cylinders no 2 and 3 for this tuning task. You automatically synchronise both carburettors in one go. Afterwards, after a long drive on the road, take out all sparkplugs and check on eveness in color and correct carbs in minute steps if needed. Always evade a singular spark plug going bright white, because then also your valves in that cylinder may be in danger!
I've still got mine from when it first came out and has seen some sterling service over the decades, used to have it all, the meter, spark tester, balancer and out there on me Triumph's and must say that these work on Vespa's beautifully making a critical job very easy as a lean engine is heat seize city on them 2 strokes :)

Colortunes are great, I faffed for ages unsucessfully with my mixture until I got one of these. Thank you

GREAT VIDEO, NICE CLEAN ENGINE TO.
make sure the engine is fully warmed up before starting this....
Yes will work on 2 stroke , but check the size of your plug
good show!
Excellent video. Can it be used on two strokes.
Yes, It does not matter on your set up , it will work just the the same
it'll work in place of any spark plug of the same size
Will this work using a Weber DCOE 45, obviously the mixture setting procedure is different, but would I be able to use this product in a similar way?
What size would i need for a Wolseley 18/85 6 cylinder twin su carbs
I d like to ask ,does it work on normal ignition or has to be electronic?
Wolseley would have 14mm plugs
