I would buy a Harmonizer if they were still available. But I have a digital Fluke manometer (extremely accurate). I am thinking I could tee in both sides of throttle body and pinch off one side at a time and match readings. Does anyone see a flaw in this? I can give this a try for just a few dollars. Perhaps it has been tried before? So what do my S10 brothers think? ???
Throttle Body Synch with Fluke Meter?

I think it's do-able on a two cylinder engine like the S10.
I'd thought about doing something similar using a single analog gauge but couldn't source the small orifice plug used to moderate the vacuum fluctuations. The hole is incredibly small and not something I thought I could make myself.

The digital fluke manometer will work great. You'll need a Y-barb for the left cylinder and will want to make sure the tubing for both sides is exactly the same length.
As for the orifice, something I've done was to run the hoses between two small pieces of wood and squeezed with a cheap little DollarStore 1" C-clamp till the fluctuations smoothed out.

Yes, here's pic of the set included with the Motion Pro tool:Rethy said:
