Hey if you want to be cheap what is wrong with the 300 length of rubber tube stuck in your ear to listen for carb balance?

Or wip the cooling fan out of your pc, put it over the carbs and measure the current it produces. Adjust the carbs till the fan produces equal currents from each.

fan thing will work since the more load a motor has placed on it the more current it will draw (up to the point where the windings melt of course!)

Youd have to make up quite a tricky rig tho.
Cant you do it with lengths of tube, water and food dye?

I think it might be described like that in a Haynes I read once upon a time?!
