Use a piece of cereal box, a few beers, and eyeball it. I hear that works just as well.

Took your advice but it was hard to fit that cereal box on top of carb, but made it work. I added one more item, I smoked a pipe when I was done. Carb runs like a champ.

Quit posting on the G and get your ass to the Fedora Reunion.

Also, why not financially support the guy that provides us with this wonderful webesite out of the kindness of his big ole' heart and buy your metering rod measuring stick from him?

If he did, I bet you he'd give you a great deal on 2-day shipping.
