Default split in carb bellows-affect tuning?

will a small split in the rubber bellows of the carb affect the tune of the engine? just wondering if i should sort that first then get on with tuning? being new to this nitro thing i'm not sure whether there will be any pressure/vacuum there or would air be drawn in and affect the tune? many thanks.

Yes it will, You'll be running rich to compensate and this will lead to load up on deceleration and possible cut out. Best replace that £3 bellow.
