Specifications
The TecMate SynchroMate Kit, model {manufacturers_part_number}, is a precision electronic tool designed for engine synchronization. It features a fixed resolution accuracy of 0.5cmHg, meeting recommendations from motorcycle and outboard marine Original Equipment (OE) manufacturers. The device incorporates a single transverse "East-West" 30-LED display, providing clear and precise vacuum intake differential readings. A built-in tachometer displays engine speed from pressure pulses within a 500-2000 RPM range, supporting both 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines. Power is supplied by 12V DC (11-15Vdc), directly from the vehicle battery. The kit includes an industrial/medical-grade Motorola pressure transducer for reliable measurements. The unit measures 22 x 11 cm and weighs approximately 0.5 kg (1 lb).
Key Features
The SynchroMate Kit offers solid-state electronic measurement, eliminating the issues associated with traditional dial gauges such as vibration and barometric pressure interference. Its fixed 0.5cmHg resolution ensures highly accurate synchronization. A dynamic (DYNamic) mode is integrated to assist in troubleshooting poor engine synchronizing and identifying valve sealing differences. The device includes a tachometer for convenient engine speed monitoring without requiring additional pick-ups. Factory calibrated, the SynchroMate automatically adjusts for barometric pressure changes, maintaining consistent accuracy. Built with a rugged, shock-resistant, and water-resistant composite casing, it contains no glass or mercury, enhancing durability. Simple periodic calibration is performed by adjusting a single screw until the center LED flashes. The kit is also upgradeable with an optional adapter for synchronizing 4-carburetor engines.
Applications
The TecMate SynchroMate Kit is primarily used for accurately synchronizing carburetors and fuel injection throttle bodies on multi-cylinder engines. It is specifically designed for 2-cylinder engines but can be expanded for 4-cylinder applications with an optional adapter. This tool is essential for maintenance and tuning of motorcycles and outboard marine engines, where precise synchronization is critical. It allows for the verification of individual carburetor or throttle body absolute vacuum pressure within a 0-60cmHg scale. The dynamic mode further extends its application to diagnostic tasks, such as troubleshooting valve seating issues by displaying pressure differences. The integrated tachometer enables users to accurately set engine idle and operating speeds.
Benefits
The SynchroMate Kit delivers tangible advantages for engine tuning and maintenance. Its electronic precision ensures accurate engine synchronization to within 0.5cmHg, leading to smoother engine operation and improved fuel efficiency. Users avoid the common frustrations of vibrating dial pointers and the need for manual barometric pressure compensation found with mechanical gauges. The reliable solid-state electronics minimize maintenance requirements, offering consistent performance over time. An intuitive flashing LED at the "Pa" mark provides immediate visual confirmation of synchronized manifolds, simplifying the adjustment process. This tool offers a cost-effective alternative to multiple high-quality dial gauges while providing superior accuracy and ease of use. Its durable construction with a protective rubber holster ensures longevity in various workshop and outdoor environments. Approved by leading engine manufacturers, the SynchroMate provides confidence in its diagnostic and tuning capabilities.
