Functions of carburetors
|
ATV Carburetors:
Most ATV carburetors use a simple design. They have a vertical air pipe that’s strategically located above the engine cylinders. The vertical air pipe is then joined to a horizontal fuel pipe (at the narrowest part of the venturi) which allows for the passage of air into the engine’s inlet manifold. The inlet manifold, also called the intake manifold, is part of the engine that supplies the air/fuel mixture to the cylinders
Motorcycle Carburetors:
Regulate the flow of air through their Main bore (Venturi), this flowing air draws in fuel and the mixture enters the engine via the intake valve.Turning the throttle on a motorcycle handlebar does not directly control how much fuel enters the engine. The throttle controls how much air is allowed to flow through the carburetor, and the flow of air is what controls how much fuel is also fed into the engine
A fuel pump is a part that supplies fuel from a fuel container to the carburetor. A fuel pump is an important part of the engine because the fuel supply is important to keep the engine running.
