If you do a search on this board and the review board, you'll find out it's crap.

my local news station did a test on it and when they got it they sent the wrong one and would not send the correct one. Very bad company! well I would not buy it unless you have a carbed car that has a bad carb and needs help mixing the air and fuel.
