5. Principis de funcionament

A carburetor is a device that blends air and fuel for an internal combustion engine. It works by creating a vacuum as air is drawn into the engine, which then pulls fuel from a fuel bowl through a series of jets and passages. This mixture is then atomized and delivered to the engine cylinders for combustion.

This 2-barrel carburetor features an automatic choke, which helps enrich the fuel-air mixture during cold starts, ensuring smoother engine operation until it reaches optimal temperature.
