Re: Synchronizing Carbs?

carbs out of sync could cause a rough idle, but so could other things. Syncing the carbs is to adjust so that each carb sees the same vacuum level so they each distribute fuel equally. They each feed a cylinder seperately instead of using an intake manifold. If you arent able to do the work yourself...

Re: My New Defective Kistler Rod or Typo

Kistler authorizes 1 guy to sell reconditioned rods on ebay. I bought 1 for a hundred bux and caught a nice king salmon on it this week. Ive caught alot of bass on it too and this rod gives a great feel when fighting fish.

Re: Football: Williams tests positive for marijuana

Why in the hell is the NFL testing for mj anyways? Its not considered performance enhancing so its none of their business.
