Frequently Asked Questions

Will The Carb Cheater magically fix my poor running car?

No, probably not. This is not a silver bullet, fix all, magic black device. You will have to put some elbow grease into your carburetor setup to make things correct. This will just tell you the information you need to help you get there.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes. We don't pay customs fees up front though. You will have to pay that when it arrives in your country.

Do you have an IOS app?

Not at this time, but its on the list for in the future.

Does The Carb Cheater work with an HEI distributor?

Yes! It works exactly the same as the external coild distrbutor, but not quite as easy to install. We will do a video on it at some point.

Do I have to have a spacer to make the carb cheater work?

No! It makes install much easier, but is definitely not required.

Do you make a spacer for my weird obscure carburetor?

Making new styles of spacers is quite expensive. We have to have a solid market to go through the effort of developing a spacer for each carburetor base we sell. We have one developed for the 3 most popular carb sizes (square bore, spread bore, and 2 barrel)

Will Luke and Joe install this for me?

We don't have the insurance to install this sensor for anyone. So unfortunately we cannot.

Can I use the wideband sensor I bought off Amazon for $20?

We include a very nice Bosch wideband in the kit. If this sensor breaks, please replace it with a proper Bosch sensor. All the cheap ones we tested did not work as well as the Bosch.

Can I use my existing wideband gauge?

Not at this time. We used to do these kits, and it was 75% of our tech support emails and only 2-3% of our sales. Not worth it for us.
