Anyone try one of those colortune sparks plugs with the window in them?

I did some research and it looked good, so I picked one up and will give it a shot this week.  Anyone have any advice or comments on it?

Thanks.

I have never seen or used one 65 buxs
Now you can adjust the idle mixture and determine the overall condition of your carb during actual use
Simply screw the Colortune Engine Analyzer into one of the spark plug holes and you can see the color of the flame produced during combustion.
Includes detailed, full-color instructions, special viewer, cleaning fluid and brush and extension
Fits cars with 14mm thread spark plugs.
Adapters available for 10mm, 12mm, 14mm long reach and 18mm thread plugs

Was it as easy as it looks?  Were you able to use it at any open throttle positions or just idle?
