I have a 500 Spyder with a 2007 cc engine and it has dual Weber IDF carbs. I am wanting to use a 4 tube manometer to tune the carbs but the American IDF's do not have ports for slipping rubber hoses over for the vacuum test. My understanding is the European IDF's have such a port with a twist tube for opening the port. I see there are blank screws at the base of each barrel right next to the air fuel mixture screw. Is this where such tubes can be inserted and where can I find them for my carb's?

There are ports on carbs, just no hose fittings.....People have gotten 5mm (or maybe its 4mm) nipples used for model marine rc boat motors successfuly.....

GO to amazon.com and use search string "Brushless-Electric-Nipple-Outlet'..
