Carburetor

A fuel delivery device for producing a proper mixture of gasoline vapour and air and for delivering it to the intake manifold of an internal combustion engine. Gasoline is gravity-fed from a reservoir bowl into a throttle bore, where it is allowed to evaporate into the stream of air being inducted by the engine.
