I've never tried a Colourtune, but the old "lift the piston" test is quick,
easy, sensitive and accurate. When everything is right, even half of one
flat on the mixture nut makes a noticeable difference. (Conversely, if you
don't get that sensitive peak, there's something wrong that should be fixed
before adjusting the mixture, like timing or valve lash.) Best of all, it's
free!
