Default Throttle balancing - Friday night job?

Before I post on tuning and tweaking, I thought I'd try here first.

Does anyone have a vacuum gauge to balance my throttle bodies? If so, can they bring it along one Friday so I can do a bit of on-street work?!

Rictus - for some reason you seem a likely candidate!

TIA.

both myself and Ian have gauges, however mine are in Enfield, so I won't be able to bring them for a couple of weeks, until I get back up there.

Cheers Mark.

Cheers Mark, I'll see what Ian replies if at all.

I'm guessing this is probably only a 10 minute job on the injected models. It looks simple enough!

I think mine could proberly do with checking, it should of been done at the 7.5k service, i believe. However it didnt get done and im rapidly approaching 11k

So if it doesnt take long, and were both at soho at the same time, i could do mine

Jambo's got twice as many cylinders - it'll take ages!
