I have what I think is the same unit form JCWhitney and love it! I too wish
it did an HC test. There is no way to know the two carbs are set in tandem
other than having the needles start at the same preset location, that the
carbs are sync'ed and then to check the plugs later that they look the same.
I guess you could use colortune to see if they are both the same color.
Bottom line is I haven't excessively worried about it and I keep the car
running better than it ever has without it.

How does the Gastester work on a car with multiple carbs? In other words how
do you know where to make the adjustment the device recommends?
