VacuumMate Allweather
Complete carburetor vacuum synchronizer with dynamic engine and RPM control
Please read the entire contents of this manual before using VacuumMate .
1. GENERALINFORMATION
VacuumMate is a 3-in-1 device for fast, accurate and reliable synchronization of
carburetors.
In RPM mode , you can properly adjust the engine RPM to the value specified by the manufacturer, both before and after synchronization . (There is no need to install a separate tachometer or use the vehicle's tachometers , which are usually not very accurate at low engine speeds.)
You can then perform an accurate synchronization in AVEmode , according to the values specified by the manufacturer. If synchronization is difficult to achieve, simply flip the switch to DYNmode to instantly get a graphic indication of whether the cylinder seals and valves are working properly. A leaking valve or other seal malfunction that reduces manifold pressure will prevent proper synchronization of cylinder injection .
More information on these three functions of the device is provided later in this manual .
The purpose of "synchronizing" the throttles is to bring the average vacuum settings in the various intake channels as close as possible to the recommended values . These values are (usually) equal, but in the case of some engines , one or more cylinders may require a different value from the others, for example, due to the different thermal expansion of the various lengths of the control connections . Therefore, it is essential to consult the service manual. Accurate adjustment is essential to ensure stable idle speed and good engine response .
The VacuumMate is equipped with four highly visible LED displays to control up to 4 channels (or 4 cylinders). These high-speed precision and frictionless column displays replace the outdated toxic mercury bars .
Thanks to its compact size and weight , the VacuumMate can be used anywhere: both in the workshop and on the track, and is the perfect tool for professional mechanics servicing high-powered sports cars , 4-stroke-powered power boats and classic multi-carburetor sports cars. A clear protective handle and a special box for storing and transporting the unit provide additional protection for the rugged, water- and shock-resistant design .
In addition to the protective handle and the company's box, the VacuumMate kit also includes a cable forthe external battery, a tee for the fuel line, and two sets of four special rigid-flexadapters with M5 and M6 threads for easy connection to engines of all types. Additional adapters are available on request (symbols M5ADPFR and M6ADPFR).

2. VACUUM MEASUREMENT UNITS AND THEIR EQUIVALENTS
For our purposes, we have assumed that vacuum is negative pressure, i.e. less than atmospheric pressure at sea level, which is equal to the pressure exerted by a column of mercury (symbol: Hg) about 76 cm high . Atmospheric pressure ( also called barometric pressure) can be expressed in different units :
1 atmosphere = 76 cm Hg= 1.013 bar = 1013 millibars = 101.3 kPa (kilopascals) = 14.7 psi (Ib/in2).
1psi = 5.17 cm Hg = 68.95 millibars = 6.895 kPa .1 cm Hg = 1.333 kPa = 13.33 millibars =
0.193 psi
Examples: 10 cm Hg = 133millibars. 20 cm Hg = 3.86 psi. 200 millibars = 15.0 cm Hg. 5 psi = 25.85 cm Hg.
Currently, most service manuals express the vacuum value in cm Hg, so this is the unit used on the VacuumMate's scale synchronization displays . Thus, if the displayed vacuum value is 20 cm Hg, it means that the inlet pressure = atmospheric pressure at the work site minus 20 cm Hg.
3. VACUUM MEASUREMENT MODES AVE (MEDIUM) AND DYN (DYNAMIC)
The pressurein the engine intake system is not constant, because it is produced by the movement of the piston, which makes the vacuum value oscillate between minimum and maximum levels in a waveform, which is called the vacuum waveform . Mechanical vacuum gauges (and some electronic ones) display only the AVERAGEvalue (AVE) of the vacuum. This parameter is used to synchronize the throttles in carburetor and injection systems . These instruments , however, are not fast and accurate enough to DYNAMICALLYkeep upwith the very rapid changes in vacuum levels and thus enable tracking of the altitude and relative position of waveform maxima and minima for each cylinder. And it is only by being able to track and display these DYNAMIC characteristics that one can determine the presence and nature of engine leaks that may interfere with or even prevent synchronization .
The electronic LED displays on the VacuumMate respond extremely quickly - fast enough to show the altitudes and relative positions of maxima and minima for each connected channel in DYN (DYNAMIC) mode . These are shown on each LED display as columns of light stretched between the maximum and minimum of each waveform. By comparing the relative heights and positions of the light columns for each channel, it is possible to detect a number of problems that would normally require taking the engine apart and carefully inspecting its individual parts, such as valves and pistons. See §8 DIAGNOSTICS below.
COMPARISON OF AVE (MEDIUM) AND DYN (DYNAMIC) DISPLAY MODES
Use the AVE / DYN switch (front inside cover, No. 10 in the figure) to select AVE or DYN mode as required. In AVE mode, VacuumMate measures the average vacuum value in 3 ranges: 5-25 / 20-40 / 35-55 cm Hg, which can be selected with the 3-position switch (front inside cover, No. 9 in the figure). Thanks to the fact that the ranges partially overlap, the user does not lose the display "out of sight" on one of the channels when the measurement results are not well synchronized and fall near the end of the range. The resolution of all scales is exactly 0.5 cm Hg.
The DYN mode can be used to check and analyze defective engine seals, in case it is difficult to obtain satisfactory synchronization even after several attempts, probably due to the irregular rhythm of the engine. The function of the DYN mode is to compare the waveform heights of individual channels (cylinders) and the relative position of their maxima and minima, which should be similar for each channel. The values themselves are not relevant here. For more information on DYN mode, see page 7, §8. DIAGNOSTICS.
4. RPM or ENGINE RPM ( RPM )
InRPM mode ,the VacuumMate checks the waveform pulses at the engine 's pneumatic connectors , so there is no need for other sensors. The waveform pulses are not subject to noise or other parasitic signals, so they are the easiest and most reliable input signals. The RPM function receives the input signal from the waveform pulses at the channel wire connector No. 1, so it is important to have this wire connected if not all four wire connections have been made.
The RPMfunction can be selected with the RPM/VAC switch (front inside cover, No. 8 in the figure).
For many Japanese motorcycles and other engines, the condition for precise injection synchronization is that the engine RPM should not deviate from the correct value (specified by the manufacturer) by more than 50 RPM. Vehicle tachometers usually lose precision at low RPMs and should not be used to set or check engine RPMs for synchronization. This is therefore a very important function of the VacuumMate. After synchronization is complete ,the engine should be carefully adjusted to the correct idle speed .
The RPM mode display shows engine speeds from 500 to 2,500 rpm , in increments of 50. The 2-stroke /4-stroke switch (front inside cover, No. 11 in the figure) allows you to display precise values for both engine types . If the switch is set incorrectly , the actual rpm will be doubled (2-stroke set as 4-stroke) or halved (4-stroke set as 2-stroke).
5. VACUUMMATE POWER SUPPLY
The VacuumMate (standard model, symbol VMR6WS) requires an external 12-volt DC power source , such as a charged 12-volt battery with enough capacity for at least 4 Ah. A cable with terminals is provided with the VacuumMate to allow connection of the battery . (In case of damage or wear , replace them immediately, see §9. SERVICE). You can also use a stable DC power source with a minimum power rating of 20 W and an actual voltage of 11 V to 15 V. CAUTION: Do not use a DC power supply that may not be properly rectified, filtered and adjusted. This may damage the VacuumMate 's circuitry and void the warranty. The vehicle's 12-volt battery should be in good working condition. A battery that is in poor working condition or has been improperly connected may cause power problems, such as peaks, which may damage the VacuumMate.
The VMR6ME is equipped with internal 7.2V NiMH rechargeable batteries. These batteries can be recharged as needed by connecting to an external, well-charged 12-volt battery or to a regulated 12-volt DC power source using the supplied cable. The VMR6ME can also be powered from an external source, but for safety reasons NOT aboard a boat .
On land, before connecting the VMR6ME to an external battery or 12-voltDC source , and before charging the internal batteries, set the battery selector switch to the 12-volt position and leave it there until the task or charge is complete , then disconnect it .
When the VMR6ME is out of service , a well-charged external 12-volt battery or power source can still be connected to it , so that the internal batteries are always charged. To connect the external battery (for the VMR6ME, first set the battery selector switch to the 12-volt position), put the red terminal on the positive terminal and the black terminal on the negative terminal of the 12-volt battery. Then connect the cable to the VacuumMate (between the rubber wires). If the input voltage is lower than 9 V or higher than 15 V, or if the battery is incorrectly (reversed) connected, the VacuumMate will not work. The low battery warning light (see the panel at the bottom of the previous page) is visible when the battery or power source voltage drops below 7 V, and the individual dashes of the display are shown in "dim" mode until the appropriate voltage returns . Important: with the power supply connected, the display dashes automatically switch to "dim" mode during the idle periodto save power, and automatically return to "bright" mode immediately after resuming measurements. When powered by an internal battery, the VMR6ME will automatically turn off after 5 minutes of inactivity to protect the battery. To resume operation, flip the switch to the left and then to the right again.
WARNING! Connecting to an alternating current (AC) source will damage the VacuumMate and may even cause electrocution! The unit can ONLY be powered by a 12-volt battery or DC power from a regulated source .

6. PNEUMATIC CONNECTIONS
Proper operation and precision of measurements require that all VacuumMate wires and connectors be completely tight, including connections to adapters and motor connection points. Hoses and connectors should be protected from physical damage and stress, and a visual and pneumatic inspection should be carried out before synchronization to check the hoses for damage, such as holes or cuts .
For easier replacement , the hoses are connected to external nipples that protrude from the housing. VacuumMate hoses are oil and fuel resistant , and replacement hoses should have similar characteristics. It is recommended that the hoses bereplaced only with genuine VacuumMate replacement hoses , which are available individually, symbol for VMHOSE orders (see § 9. SERVICE).
The engine manufacturer's SERVICE HANDBOOK should tell you where to connect the hoses to the engine to measure the injection vacuum . In some cases, the rubber hoses can be connected directly to the vacuum sockets (or nipples) on the manifold after removing the clamps and rubber sealing plugs . However, in most engines the vacuumconnections are plugged with screws. Rubber hoses can be connected directly to any "male" vacuum port (after removing the rubber plug) or use VacuumMatethreaded adapters if the port is threaded, afterremoving thesealing screws. Connecting the cable to channel 1 is a prerequisite for proper operation of the displays .
The VacuumMate comes with a rich set of special adapters. The rigid-flexible guides can be bent slightly . These tubes are used to guide the plastic tubes that go inside them , which can be rotated to tighten the threads. This solution helps to connect points where access is limited*. The reverse thread structure on the connection between the plastic tubes and their threaded metal ends makes it possible to unscrew the adapters from the hot engine without the risk of the metal end getting stuck in the threaded socket. 4 of the adapters have M5 threads (Honda and Suzuki), and 4 have M6 threads (Kawasaki and Yamaha). Once the adapters are in place, securely insert the plastic adapter tube into the rubber hose(s ) of the VacuumMate. If this is difficult, you can use a small amount of silicone oil (but not motor oil).
-* There is a set of useful accessories containing items to help with the connection, permanently attached to threaded female points on the intake manifold and terminating in easily accessible metal nipples secured with rubber plugs , which (when removed) allow the VacuumMate rubber hoses to be connected directly to the nipples. These kits are available with M5 and M6 threads and 40-centimeter sections of rubber hose ( order symbols VMLFIXADP5 and VMLFIXADP6) or in a short configuration without hose ( order symbols VMSFIXADP5 or VMSFIXADP6).
If fuel is supplied by an automatic fuel valve , it is usually connected to either vacuum port . By using a tee (figure above) with a short piece of tubing , which are supplied with the VacuumMate, the fuel valve remains connected, so the fuel flow is not blocked during synchronization. Another solution is to maintain the fuel flow using a manual vacuum pump (figure above, MityVac #4000, available from VacuumMate distributors ). The advantage of this solution is that the fuel valve does not affect vacuummeasurements .
7. PROCEDURE
Gettingstarted .
Connect the appropriate pneumatic connectors . It is best to start by connecting the hose to channel No. 1. Start the engine and wait for it to warm up. Connect the VMR6WS to a suitable battery or DC power source. If you are using the VMR6ME model : move the battery switch lever from left to right to set it to the ON position, as the VacuumMate is equipped with an automatic switch that turns it off after 5 minutes of inactivity, protecting the internal batteries .
If gaining access to the manifold' s hose connection points requires removing the fuel tank, a hanging fuel bottle can be a helpful device . The fuel cylinder comes complete with a hose and tap, and can also include a special StandMatemobile stand or outrigger , which are designed specifically for the Peak Voltage Analyzer for IgnitionTroubleshooting , VacuumMate and IgnitionMate. The StandMate is equipped with two height-adjustable diagonal holders for both tools, as well as an adjustable tray for small parts, adapters, clamps and screws, and a rack for an additional hanging fuel cylinder . The StandMate allows both tools to be safely and conveniently positioned at or above the vehicle itself , so that the service technician has both hands free while working . Other symbols: StandMate: IMSTAND. Fuel bottle with kit: IMSTATANK
Engine speed control
Select the AVE mode using the AVE/DYN switch . Set the RPM/VAC switch to the RPM position. Selection of the RPM setting is confirmed by the LED below the RPM scale markings . Set the 2-stroke/4-stroke switch to the appropriate position for the motor type. On the left scale ("CHANNEL 1"), you can now track the engine RPM in the range of 500-2500 RPM with a step of 50 RPM for each diode segment.
To synchronize the injection, set the engine speed according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
If necessary, correct this setting during the synchronization process to maintain the required RPM. Once synchronization is successfully completed, return to RPM mode to set the appropriate engine speed for the idle speed, if necessary .
Synchronization
One carburetor is called the "base" carburetor, the "fixed" carburetor, or sometimes the reference carburetor. This carburetor is engaged directly by the throttle mechanism (with a cable or rod). It is best to connect a rubber cable to the No. 1 channel to this "fixed" carburetorto make it easier to synchronize it with the others. The other throttles are connected to the fixed carburetor. It is useful to familiarize yourself with the system of these connections in order to understand the order in which synchronization should be done so that it does not affect the previously set carburetors . See the figure below left. Each synchronized carburetor has one adjustment screw. See the figure below right.
Normally , the adjustment should start with the carburetor that is next to the fixed carburetor. The goal is to have the same measurement value in each channel at idle unless , for a given engine , the values specified for each manifold differ slightly . (Examples of this type of engine: Mercury and Yamaha 4-stroke inboard engines , Honda VFR800 motorcycle engine). Start by setting the scale range switch to the 5-25 cm Hg position. If necessary, switch it to 20-40 cm Hg. The upper scale range of 35-55 cm Hg is required only for a small number of motorcycle models. The selection of the scale is indicated by an LED located under the markings of the scale in question .
Some engines require synchronization with an accuracy of 0.5 cm Hg, but in most cases synchronization with an accuracy of 1 cm Hg is sufficient , so read the service manual before struggling to achieve better accuracy. During synchronization, regularly switch the display to RPM mode to check whether the engine speed deviates from the set value; if so , correct the RPM setting first .
In case it is difficult to obtain satisfactory synchronization even after several attempts, for example, when the LED displays indicate synchronization of the motor, although its sound is irregular, select DYNmode to check and analyze damaged motor seals. The selection of the DYN mode is indicated by a diode located next to the word "Pa",to the right of the channel No . 4 display. See § 8. DIAGNOSTICS later in this manual. Brief information is also provided on the VacuumMate " 3-in-1" poster .
Finishing the job
Once the synchronization level is satisfactory , once again select the RPM function to set the required idling speed of the engine . Turn off the motor, disconnect the VacuumMate from the power supply and the housing, and then disconnect the pneumatic motor connectors , being careful not to burn your fingers! It is best to keep the adapters and other accessories together with the VacuumMate in the company's box or , if you have a StandMate (see page 5) , in a steel tray with compartments and in an instrument holder .
8. DIAGNOSTICS: OPERATION IN DYN MODE
IMPORTANT: Before reading the following section, please refer to section No. 3 , " AVE AND DYN PRESSUREMEASUREMENT MODES ."
By displaying the DYNAMIC waveform of the injection vacuum characteristics , you can determine the presence and nature of engine leaks that make synchronization difficult or impossible. In the event that it is difficult to achieve satisfactory synchronization even after several attempts (which may also involve an irregular engine rhythm), select DYN mode (but only after unsuccessful synchronization attempts in AVEmode ).
In DYN mode, the following engine leakage problemscan be quickly diagnosed Nieszczelne intake valves or

The following diagrams show realistic examples of the pressure waveforms that can occur in the intake manifold of a 4-stroke engine. Compare with the diagrams on page 2.
The pressure value scale has been inverted intentionally to convert it to a vacuum scale and correlate with the VacuumMate LED displays .
The display shows aflickering column of light. In fact, the individual LEDs in each of the connected channels follow the vacuum waveform curve (from left to right) at tremendous speed, like a roller-coaster, chasing vacuum values through successive minima and maxima. Since the human eye is not as fast as the vacuum waveform in a running engine, we only see a light bar, whose height and position depends on the position of successive minima and maxima .
NORMAL INJECTION VACUUMWAVEFORM - ENGINE LEAKAGE OK .
LED bar display shown with a typical course of injection pressure
During the suction phase, the intake valve is open, and the piston moves downward, increasing the vacuum until it reaches the maximum value (inverted pressure waveform).
When the intake valve is closed , the fuel intake is interrupted, and the mixture from the throttle fills the vacuum, "restoring" the atmospheric pressure in it (Pa designation) at the lowest point of the vacuum graph. A slight exceeding of the Pa designation can be understood as a "shock" effect .
In DYN mode, the waveform heights for each connected channel (cylinder) and the relative positions of the minima and maxima are displayed side by side for comparison.
Once all carburetors are properly synchronized , if everything is working properly, all columns should have the same height and position. (See figure below left with comment**)
** This statement doesn't quite apply to some engines, such as the Honda VFR800 motorcycle engine and Mercury, Mariner and Yamaha 4-stroke outboard engines , where some of the cylinders have a slightly different AVEinjection vacuum setting by design .
100% NORMAL ZAWÓR EXHAUST INLET VALVE
The VacuumMatema unit features automatic range selection in DYNmode . The range is automatically selected to provide the optimal resolution for comparing connected channels. The range is automatically selected for the channel with the highest maximum. The bases of the columns , which apply to motors without defective seals, should normally be almost exactly opposite the Pa (Pa = atmospheric pressure) designation to the right of the LED displays (see top right). Other than the Pa marking in DYN mode , there are no other scale markings , since the purpose is not to measure, but rather to compare connected channels. If the light bar reachesdown to the P+ zone (below the Pa level ), it indicates ADDITIONAL pressure (higher than atmospheric), and if it reaches up to the P- zone, it indicates negative pressure.
Above center and right are examples of disturbed waveforms.The characteristics of disturbed waveforms show the nature of engine leaks , as different leaks cause different disturbed waveforms. The most common waveform disturbances are shown on the next page .
EXAMPLE 1:
EXHAUST VALVE DOES NOT CLOSE
If one of the exhaust valves does not close , some of the exhaust gases will be sucked back into the combustion chamber during the intake stroke. This is shown in the column display in DYN mode for that cylinder, where the maximum (highest point) of the waveform is located lower than for the other (normal) channels.
FALSE AIRSUSPENSION
Falseair is air that is sucked into the cylinder behind the throttle, such as in the case of a leak in the intake manifold . In this case, the display in DYN mode resembles the indication for a leaking exhaust valve. The highest point of the LED display for this cylinder will also be lower than for the other channels .
A typical mileage disturbance caused by this type of defect is shown on the next page .
EXAMPLE 1: EXHAUST VALVE OR INTAKE MANIFOLD LEAK .
Normal mileage is shown in lighter color for comparison with darker disturbed mileage .
EXAMPLE 2: INLET VALVE DOES NOT CLOSE
If any of the inlet valves does not close , it means that the combustion chamber has a continuous connection with the intake system. During the combustion cycle, the high-pressure wave will back up into the carburetor, creating positive pressure in the intake manifold . The minimum of the vacuum waveform (the lower point of the dynamic band displayed for this cylinder) will fall below the Pa line in the P+direction , reflecting the positive pressure value .
EXAMPLE 2: LEAKING INTAKE VALVE
The normal waveform is shown in lighter color for comparison with the darker disturbed waveform.
9 SERVICE
Accidental immersion
In case of accidental immersion in water, immediately remove the VacuumMate from the water and disconnect it from the power supply . Wipe the VacuumMatedry , and dry the power cord plug with a hair dryer . Carefully remove the soft rubber sealing plug that covers the VacuumMate 's calibration elements and dry the calibration cavity with ahairdryer .
If you suspect water may be inside the unit, shake out as much as you can through the calibration cavity , then dry thoroughly with a hair dryer , lean the unit against a vertical surface with the calibration cover facing up and let it dry completely. Do not replace the calibration cover until all moisture has been removed , fitting it carefully , as this is the only way to prevent damage in case of accidental immersion in the future. Water, especially salty water , can damage the device if not removed immediately and completely. Connect the device to power only after carefully checking that there is no water inside or around the power cord socket .
If the device malfunctions after immersion , return it to the distributor for inspection and repair .
Calibration
The device has been thoroughly checked and calibrated at the factory, and during normal operation it self-calibrates on a daily basis according to changes in atmospheric pressure. However, over time, due to the gradual drift of the calibrationpressure sensors and the cumulative effect of shock during handling, wear and tear and significant temperature changes, the calibration will need to be corrected .
WHEN TO PERFORM CALIBRATION ?
Connect the device to power and wait at least 5 minutes for it to warm up. Then check the position of the 4 LEDs in DYNmode when the rubber leads are open to the air (i.e. not connected to the motor).
For perfect calibration , all LEDs should be aligned with the Paline . If the LEDs are one degree down or up and one degree apart from the Pa line , calibration is not necessary. Otherwise ,calibration must be performed according to the following procedure .

HOW TO PERFORM CALIBRATION - PREPARATION
Toimprove VacuumMatecalibration , you will need the following equipment :
A hand vacuum pump with a built-in dial calibrated in kPa, mBar or cm Hg (e.g., MityVac No. 4000) or a hand vacuum pump with an external flow pressure gauge of adequate accuracy .
A quadrant that allows all four channels of the VacuumMate to be connected simultaneously to a hand-held pressure pump . See page 12, accessory symbol : VM1TO4DIV.
Flathead screwdriver with a 2.2-3 mm diameter shaft . See page 12, accessory symbol : VMCALKIT.
To access the calibration components , carefully remove the soft rubber sealing plug from the bottom of the VacuumMate. The 12-element (model VMR6ME) or 11-element (model VMR6WS) potentiometers will appear .
Adjust ONLY the 8 elements grouped in 4 pairs on the right side. DO NOT adjust the remaining elements.
The positions of the calibration elements are marked on the bottom edge of the control panel .
ADJUST ONLY THESE ELEMENTS
Damage to the plug may reduce the water resistance of the device
HOW TO PERFORM CALIBRATION - PROCEDURE
Select VAC, 35-55 cm Hg and AVE using the switches on the control panel. Generate a vacuum of -70kPa / 700 mBar / 52.5 cm Hg using the vacuum hand pump . Adjust the SPANelements so that a vacuum value of 52.5 cm Hg is displayed on all 4 channels . Completely eliminate the
vacuum by disconnecting at least one tube from the quadrant. Select DYN with the AVE/DYN switch on the VacuumMate control panel . Adjust the Pa elements so that the Pa pressure line is displayed exactly opposite the Pamark on all four channels .
REPEAT the WHOLE PROCEDURE at least once to check the calibration .
