FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION VENT SYSTEMS - CV CARBURETOR OPERATION CONT’D CARBURETOR When the throttle plate is opened and engine speed begins to increase, the pressure in the venturi (and therefore in the chamber above the diaphragm) The carburetor float bowl vent lines supply becomes significantly lower than atmospheric.
FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION FLOAT SYSTEM Fuel enters the float chamber (3) by means of the inlet pipe and passage, through a screen on the back of the inlet needle seat (4), and around the inlet needle (2). As the fuel fills the float chamber, the float (1) rises and forces the inlet needle against the seat, shutting off the orifice in the seat.
FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION MAIN SYSTEM As throttle valve (1) is opened, engine speed rises, and this increases negative pressure in the venturi. Consequently the vacuum slide (2) moves upward. The fuel in float chamber (3) is metered by main jet (4), and the metered fuel enters needle jet (5), in which it mixes with the air admitted through main air jet (6) to form an emulsion.
