I've been looking for one of these for a while, just bought it. He has a few more.

I bowl for $50 - pass. If it were three bowls for $50 I'd be interested.

I gave $40. If it saves me time setting fuel and float levels it will be well worth it, that's why I wanted one.

I'm assuming that you would only use one for diagnostics/set up...as I reckon they would turn yellow with age with fuel in them long-term? They would look really cool, kind of like those watches with the clear backer so you can see the inner works going around! Would that be considered "distracted driving" IF you tried tuning while going down the road!!! :thumbup:

It would be kind of cool to have three, install them and mount a Go-Pro to watch what the gas does as you go sport around.

I have a complete set of Lectron's that have those style bowls, blender isn't severe enough for some ways it works. And, after a few heat cycles, they warp, and...leak.

I made a testing bowl years ago, old blwl, single fuel fitting out the bottom, old drain fitting, clear plastic tube up the side, works beauty, less than a buck in costs.

Nothing wrong with using the clear bowl for setting carbs up, but, this one is severe in cost.
