Check out this video of a self tuning carb. This guy has made his own kit for people that want to use carbs but also don't like tuning.


 
Interesting. The installation is minimally invasive. But I am curious to see the next video. Mainly, what this thing does. Auto tune? Love to hear the explanation of that. I do enjoy some of his videos.
 
The problem is that people don't look at the real reason to purchase this awesome tuning tool. The data logging of your drive cycle is a great feature. I have an AFR meter but this unit is far better than a simple gauge.
I have some questions that I need to ask Luke about his invention before I place my order. I just get frustrated when people think this tuning tool a fix all for what is wrong with their carb. I doesn't adjust or tune ANYTHING on your carb. it just gives you a guideline on where to go on jet or metering rod sizes by monitoring your AFR numbers. It gives a slight vacuum leak below the carb to compensate for an over rich condition sort of like drilling the secondary blades on a carb so it will idle with a big cam.
The only downside is I might not get it until the season is over.

Don't get frustrated when people think something like that, especially when he is marketing it as "self-tuning".

Updated video & more information. Kinda neat tool for sure.
