50 years and still cant get one car to run right.

 

Well from what I can tell, this guy is a joke. Other than that, I know nothing about carbs other than, 1)I bolt it to the top of the manifold 2) Hook up the linkages and fuel lines 3) It works.

Im not versed in how the carb functions with all the little bits and parts that make up the carb. Ive been looking for a well written article on how a carb works and all but cant seem to find anything other than chainsaw carbs and whatnot. Hurst, you got any info for me?

 

x2, carbs were before my time. I couldnt point out a single part on a carburetor. Hell, I honestly dont think I've ever even touched one (on a car).

 

 

thats classic

betcha 10bucks if u sent that to him he would be like "who told u my secret?!?!?"

 

yes it is! works great with the electric supercharger kit. together they make MAD POWA!!

 

In all honesty,. I understand the basics of a carb. But I dont think I could write up a description detailed enough to fully describe how a carb works. Not to the level of detail that I like to provide everyone with when I write something up.

I know how to adjust a carb and how to pull plugs and read plugs. Thats pretty much all there is to it. Carbs are very simple.

i dont see how that thing is going to work. and as far as the guy saying that you have to pay to know how it works thats f-ing stupid. as far as carbs go im doing pretty good with them. i can take them apart and rebuild them but as far as why it has all thoughs little chanels carved in them i have no idea.
