∫ Air-fuel mixture
As engine rotates, intake valve opens and piston moves from top dead center toward bottom dead center, the piston
movement causes vacuum or low pressure area to occur in the back of throttle valve.
Then, the air enters carburetor through air intake port, runs through throat venturi and throttle valve, and then is sucked into
the combustion chamber area in the cylinder that is in air intake stroke.
The float chamber receives atmospheric pressure through air vent. This pressure causes fuel to be sucked into low pressure
area in the back of throttle valve. The fuel is sent to main fuel well through main jet, runs through idle passage and pilot jet
bypass (off idle) port, and then is ejected from pilot outlet. When this fuel goes through bypass port, it is mixed with air in the
carburetor bore to be air-fuel mixture which is sucked into the cylinder.
