I remember one fine day, under the shade of the maple trees in our barnyard, I had all my tune up equipment out on the fender of my car. My grandfather stopped over and asked me why I needed all that stuff. He said, "just listen to the engine, it will tell you when you have it right".

I had to make due with a duck feather, sticks and a rock
One of the best carb tuners I ever met used nothing but the sound and the smell from the exhaust.
