  • A carburettor, also spelled carburetor (American English) or carburetter (British English), is a mechanical device that combines air and fuel in the proper ratio for an internal combustion engine. It was the primary method of fuel delivery in gasoline engines for most of the 20th century but has been largely replaced by fuel injection systems since the 1990s.
    Here's a quick overview of carburettors:
    Function:
    Mixing air and fuel: The carburettor mixes air and fuel in a precise ratio, crucial for optimal engine performance and efficiency.
    Controlling engine speed: The air-fuel mixture regulates the engine's speed, with more mixture leading to higher speeds and vice versa.
    Adapting to conditions: Carburettors have various components that adjust the air-fuel mix based on engine temperature, altitude, and throttle position.
    Components:
    Venturi: A narrowed section in the air intake that creates a low-pressure zone, drawing fuel from jets.
    Jets: Small openings that meter the amount of fuel delivered based on engine demand.
    Throttle valve: Controls the amount of air entering the engine, indirectly affecting the fuel drawn through the jets.
    Choke: Enriches the air-fuel mixture for easier cold starts.
    Float bowl/valve: Maintains a constant fuel level for consistent fuel delivery.
    Why were carburettors replaced?
    Fuel efficiency: Fuel injection systems offer better fuel metering and control, leading to improved efficiency
    Where are carburettors used?
    Small engines: Carburettors are still commonly found in small engines like lawnmowers, generators, and chainsaws.
    Classic cars: Carburettors remain popular in classic cars for their simplicity and ease of repair.
    Motorcycles: Some motorcycles, particularly older .
