Carb Cheater is now publicly available! This video is posted for those who own, or have ordered a Carb Cheater kit, and like me, you dont like reading instructions! to learn more about carb cheater, go to thecarbcheater.com or stay tuned! (Go to "store" on website to buy a kit) Currently no ios app, a cheap 50 dollar amazon tablet works just as good. Tailored to V8 or big 6's at the moment. big thanks to all the Beta Testers who participated and helped Joe & I bring carb cheater to the public :)

Not to slag on Edelbrock and Holley but their products are about 10 years behind. So even though they do have EFI solutions they are not sophisticated. And this carb cheater isn't really something they'd be interested in anyways as the EFI systems force you to upgrade everything and are much more profitable. And this market is really small, so the risk of a knock off is fairly low but our Chinese friends can paper-engineer anything, so if they wanted to do it they could. Buy USA (or Australia, Canada, UK).

I think this product is a godsend, there are still a lot of us older "gear heads" that like carbs. Sure EFI is "better" but there is a lot more to go wrong with EFI and it can be expensive to fix IMHO. If I could offer one suggestion, it would be to send a kit to your fellow youtubers, VGG, Junkyard Digs, DD's Speed Shop et al. and get them to install it on one of their "revivals" and have them make a video of the install and results. I think the more people see this being utilized by the other people they watch and hearing the positive feedback (which I am certain you would get) would go a long way in promoting and reassuring people this isn't "snake oil". Just my two cents. Wishing you the best of luck and hope these sell like the proverbial "hot cakes". Keep up the great work.

Suggestion for improvement: For the mid-plate, smoothen, bevel, trumpet or cone the holes on your 3D-model. This way you'll have solid indication which side of the plate needs to face down, and overall better flow and performance on your kit. For the already existing plates, you can mill the underside to resemble a cloverleaf pattern, just round the outside edges, if the middle seems too thin to round off. 5-10 hp more on top of the fuel savings is worth it. Just don't call it "the cloverleaf" to avoid any legal actions.

After seeing him work on the prototype build, I thought it be really fun to make a rudimentary version. Obviously just amping the O2 sensor output into the valve soleniod isn't going to work, but it'd be interesting to see what that does and start from there, maybe then try adding, subtracting or compounding the O2 output with the MAP sensor output... Kind of like a CDI doesn't need to be perfect, it just generally needs to increase the timing with RPM. Some carbs may not need much correction, just to lean out at higher rpm or something

Modern EFI regulates fuel delivery among other parameters to achieve a consistent and optimal operation curve. Carburetors have a static fuel curve. This device uses a wide band air fuel sensor as feedback with a idle speed regulator to control manifold vacuum, introducing more or less bypass air to achieve optimal operation.

You may know this already.. but.. for those who don’t.. Typically motorcycles use CV or Constant Velocity carbs.. which respond differently than Holley or Edelbrock designs.. Because they compensate for airflow by raising or lowering the metering rod based on air velocity, you want to balance them using vacuum sticks or airflow meters. You start with them off the bike and use feeler gauges to set the butterflys..do it with them on the idle stop AND at wide open.. you want them exactly in sync with each other… then check with the vacuum sticks or airflow meters.. they will show vacuum leaks or bad valves/valve adjustments, which are common on Japanese bikes because the shim under bucket can be a pain… As a fellow enthusiast of these bikes and Italian and German as well..only a few things kill them.. bad floats and seats, water/ modern fuel left in them causing corrosion .. after that valves sticking and valve springs collapsing from sitting for years. Best of luck and have fun!

I was into 70s multiple cylinder bikes about 20 years ago. Most of those ( mainly Honda) were not cv carbs. Tiny low speed jets were usually partially plugged up on a neglected bike. Leaky / worn float valves and bad fuel tank petcocks are common. I used a rack of 4 vacuum gages to synchronize them, not hard. High prices for carb parts was the worst problem. Honda (and others )probably had a good reason for using 4 carbs instead of 1, but I don’t know what the reason is. I would love to hear about your efforts to single carb a Japanese multi. Good luck!

Got to say, this is pretty nifty for the people new to cars or just carb tuning. Would be an interesting option for a headache free weekend cruiser that isn't efi too. I've been doing the grease on gasket trick my whole life. Dad was born in Tennessee up in the mountains in 1939. When he was growing up it was basically a requirement to keep sheets of gasket making material on hand to keep everything going on the farm. To prolong the gaskets life and help with sealing they would lather them in grease. When times were real tough they even cut out and layered pages of old mail order catalogs and thin cardboard boxes into truly backwoods made gaskets. They would take the layers and brush them in grease and then set them in the sun to get the grease to become thinner. Once it seemed about right they would take thin boards place the greased up stack of paper on it, place another board on top and then back the tractor on top on the boards to compact it all down. If the tractor was what was broken they would press them under the biggest logs they hadn't already split for the smokehouse or wood burner. He told me the gaskets would many times have a small trickle of fluid or vacuum leak initially. Once they were able to get some heat into it a time or two the paper would swell back up and the leaks would be gone. Some of them lasted way longer than they ever should have. 20yrs ago his sister sold their old family tractor which still had several 30+yr old homemade gaskets holding strong. They used all kinds of other materials at times too and another he said worked rather well was leather soaked in grease or pine tar. I've also used permatex 51845 without the activator on carb gaskets and air cleaner base gaskets with a lot of success. Seals great, doesn't really wipe away, and allows the gasket to be reused nearly indefinitely.

This is an awesome tool, Luke! Glad all that engineering with the lawnmower carb (which I presume was the originator of this idea) went to good use. I hope it sells well for you. If I had a carbureted vehicle, I'd buy one immediately. 👍

Congrats - I knew about this and watched this anyway. I don't have any use for it but I gave it some thought and figured at what price point this would be viable and you NAILED it. Exactly my guess, I hope you sell a mountain of these things... wait, could I run this on my lawn mower?

This is extremely intriguing, I love driving my T-bird but the gas mileage isn't great, so it sounds like this is just the kind of thing I could use to feel free to drive it more often.

I truly love your channel, inhave learnt so much from you. The way you explain things, making something potentially complicated simple and easy ro understand is an art. What you have done here with carb Cheater is amazing and fantastic, I want one. I will be e mailing you as your shipping doesn't include Canada. So I am hoping we can sort something out so I can get one as well. I live in Alberta not far from the mountains, and I own and operate a small landscaping business using a square body chevy truck as my daily work truck ( 1980 K20 ) I got the tune as good as i can as I got an afr a few years back after watching your vids about them. I maintain a good 14.7 however living where i do those temp changes amongst preasure changes mess with the tune all year long. I also plow snow with this truck, so Temps change 10 to 20 degrees over the day to night especially where I live when we get a Chinook. Anyway I had thought about getting efi but the guy said if i am diled in with myncarb as i am efi won't do much better. So seeing what you have made here will look after those changing variables that I deal with over the course of my day. Looking forward ro your response and thanks you for all the time and energy you have put into your channel and development of carb cheater.

Very impressive creating a controlled vacuum leak to lean out a rich carburetor until the mixture gets as close to stoichiometric as possible. An elegant and simple solution to a limitation of carbs we've had to put up with for years.

Just installed a 4-hole spacer under my Holley, and now i have to change the gasket under it from a 4 hole to an open one. You always learn something from uncle Lukes videos.

Better than sucking a peoce of gasket into a valve and bending it potentially 🙂
