    If you make it, make sure whatever tubing you use to seal the ports is high temp.

    All you really do is shove it in the port... lock in place... and sync.
    Remove it, then colortune. I believe some say to colortune with the tool in, but in my head I think it's better afterwards, because the final colortune is where your bike will idle, and that is without the YICS tool in place.

    check the current YICS thread; apparently Yamaha recommends final mixture adjustment with the tool "in." I'm going to do it both ways (Colortune) and compare.

    *edit* after I get a new tool from chacal, my homemade one melted.
