	Carburetor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The carburetor, carburettor, or carburetter (see spelling differences), also called carb (in North America) or carbie (chiefly in Australia) for short, is a device that mixes air and fuel for an internal combustion engine.
		This job would be simple if air and petrol (gasoline) were ideal fluids; in practice, however, their deviations from ideal behavior due to viscosity, fluid drag, inertia, etc. require a great deal of complexity to compensate at exceptionally high or low engine speeds.
		Many modern gasolines appear to have additives for "cleaning" which perform the same effect by producing varnishes or gums in the presence of water, which of course, is not a recommended use.

	TSB Reports - Air 2000 - A00P0094
		The carburettor and the exhaust system were extensively damaged, and the carburettor was detached from the engine.
		A small amount of fuel was found in the carburettor float bowl and in the fuel line between the gascolator and the carburettor.
		The outside air temperature and dew point at the time of the accident are known to have been highly conducive to the formation of carburettor ice, and the use of MOGAS increased the likelihood of this occurring.

		Place a drop of oil on the three connections of the carburettor linkage (support arm, carburettor control arm and where the rod is inserted in the supercharger).The original throttle return spring is retained on the late models.
		In order to mount the carburettor on some models it is necessary to remove a 4" section of the reinforcing rib located on the underside of the panel directly over the carburettor.

	Automotive Gasoline FAQ
		Because sulfur in gasoline inhibited the octane-enhancing effect of the alkyl lead, the sulfur content of the thermally-cracked refinery streams for gasolines was restricted.
		Gasoline volatility is being reduced as modern engines, with their fuel injection and management systems, can automatically compensate for some of the changes in ambient conditions - such as altitude and air temperature, resulting in acceptable driveability using less volatile fuel.
		Reduced gasoline volatility and composition changes, along with cleanliness additives and engine management systems, can help minimise cold start emissions, but currently the most effective technique appears to be rapid, deliberate heating of the catalyst, and the new generation of low thermal inertia "fast light-up" catalysts reduce the problem, but further research is necessary [53].

	5. Alcohol and cotton oil as alternative fuels for internal combustion engines
		Existing gasoline inlet manifold and hot-spot systems cannot provide the necessary amount of heat since the demand is 6 times greater than that for gasoline, and the extra heat must be taken either from the cooling system of the engine, or from the exhaust gases.
		In the first approach, the alcohol and gasoline were mixed inside the main metering jet tube of the carburettor; In the second approach, the alcohol from the alcohol float chamber was conducted to a new main metering jet tube opposite to the main metering jet tube of gasoline.
		When a gasoline engine is converted to alcohol/gasoline blended fuel, it is crucial to maintain the stability of ratio between alcohol and gasoline during the operation of the engine.

	Mechanical Tips
		Igniting of the compressed gasoline vapour by a spark within a gasoline engine, or, the injection of a diesel mist through an injector, which then self ignites due to the heat, generated by compressing the air.
		Gasoline is converted into a fine mist with the outside air inside a carburettor or an injection system (Both types are not shown in the drawing).
		The "choke" for example restricts the airflow in the carburettor and thus more fuel, in turn, is administered to the engine (necessary to compensate for the condensation of fuel inside a cold engine).

		Antiknock compounds, principally tetraethyl lead, were added to most gasolines to prevent knocking, a rapid, uncontrolled burning in the final stages of combustion that results in a characteristic "knock," or pinging noise, and may damage an engine or reduce its performance.
		Antiknock quality is rated by the octane number of the gasoline and depends primarily on the compression ratio of the engine.
		In the early 1990s regular gasoline carried an octane rating of 87 and high-test in the neighborhood of 93.

		The report also stated that it appeared the carburettor worked by turning petrol into vapor before it entered the cylinder chambers, reducing the amount of fuel needed for combustion.
		The carburettor, named the Winnipeg, was never manufactured commercially after 1936, and the plans apparently disappeared.
		It was suggested that the oil companies and automobile companies colluded to prevent the carburettor from being manufactured commercially.

	Tuning the LET
		To obtain the maximum energy from the gasoline, the compressed fuel-air mixture inside the combustion chamber needs to burn evenly, propagating out from the spark plug until all the fuel is consumed.
		In the 1920s, typical gasoline octane ratings were 40-60, and during the 1930s and 40s, the ratings increased by approximately 20 units as alkyl leads and improved refining processes became widespread.
		Later model carburettors have an idle stop solenoid which partially closes the throttle blades when the ignition key was off, and (if set correctly) thus prevents run-on.

	Sugar in gasoline (John Ross; Bruce Hamilton)
		The sugar will grab any free water from gasoline - as the fuel cools at night, water condenses out and runs down to the bottom of the tank, the water will redissolve on heating, but if sugar is present, a sticky mass will form that will block filters or fuel lines.
		I've never yet encountered a gasoline that can dissolve sufficient sugar to cause problems through any other reason than fuel starvation from fuel system blockage or failure of fuel pump valves due to insoluble sugar or sugar/water phases.
		I expect the sugar to separate by partition from gasoline the moment it grabs or encounters sufficient water, and the methanol will not be able to significantly change that.

		The carburetor for a gasoline engine is usually either a surface carburetor, or alternatively a float carburetor (called also float-feed carburetor, or spray carburetor).
		In the former air is charged by being passed over the surface of gasoline.
		In the latter a fine spray of gasoline is drawn from an atomizing nozzle by a current of air induced by the suction of the engine piston, the supply of gasoline being regulated by a float which actuates a needle valve controlling the outlet of the feed pipe.

		It burns without leaving the carbon residue in the engine that is responsible for premature wear; it increases the life of the spark plugs, valves and pistons and preserves the properties of the engine oil for much longer.
		Taking the example of a vehicle that does 10 km/l when running on gasoline, it should have a fuel distance of about 230 km with a 90 l tank, which is the equivalent of 23 l of gasoline, when running on Natural Gas.
		LPG costs about half compared to gasoline so it is possible to redeem the cost of the system quickly and then start saving money, even if the distances covered are not very high.

		Recent changes in European gasolines has caused concern, as high sensitivity unleaded fuels have been found that fail to meet the 85 MON requirement of the EN228 European gasoline specification [106].

		Increasing the compression ratio increases the theoretical thermodynamic efficiency of an engine according to the standard equation Efficiency = 1 - (1/compression ratio)^gamma-1 where gamma = ratio of specific heats at constant pressure and constant volume of the working fluid (for most purposes air is the working fluid, and is treated as an ideal gas).

		The principle used by the LPG ECU to calculate the injection timing applied to the LPG injectors, is based on the acquisition of the gasoline injection timing by LPG ECU during LPG mode.
		The engine management is, therefore, mainly left to the gasoline ECU whilst the LPG control unit translates gasoline actuations into an appropriate control for LPG injectors.
		Roughly, the LPG ECU converts an amount of energy that should be actuated by the gasoline into an equivalent amount of energy that LPG has to release in order to compensate the differences between two fuels.
