Gentle Alfisti,
A brace of DCOE4 carbs are proving difficult to balance and I want to get them 
just right. So I cobbled-together a manometer from two vertical plastic tubes 
and rubber stoppers and am drawing vacuum from the brake booster inlet and the 
mirror side opening inlet on the adjacent carb. I fiddled with this contrivance 
all morning and I still cannot get the carbs to exhibit equal vacuum. Please, 
Digest, tell me if the opening of the carb butterfly by means of the central 
balance adjusting screw will increase the respective vacuum in the system 
downstream from the opened throttle plate. Or is it the other-way-around?  In 
other words, will putting the throttle plate on it's idle stop ( fully closed) 
increase vacuum at the downstream port?  Does the brake booster air valve 
effect the results of my comparative balance test?  Thank you one and all.
