Talking silly question time

as i have never tried it, what would happen if you connected all the vacuum spigots from the TB's or carbs together using a piece of hose?

my thoughts are it would run like shizz as its pulling air from other TB's/carbs.

I'll be surprised if anyone's tried it. Why not start a poll?

I'll vote for you running out of fuel because you've switched off the fuel tap by removing its vacuum pipe.

My map sensor does just that. A feed from each cylinder to a T connector onto the Map sensor. So id guess no difference...
