FLOAT SYSTEM
The carburetor is a float bowl type, with the float chamber located just below the carburetor body. The float
system keeps the fuel in the float chamber at the correct level while the engine is running (Figure 14-5).
Fuel is supplied to the carburetor float chamber by an external impulse pump that draws fuel from the fuel
tank and through the fuel filters. The fuel then passes through the inlet valve (5) (Figure 14-4, Page 14-4)
and into the float bowl. The fuel entering the bowl causes the float (4) (Figure 14-4) to rise until it shuts off
the inlet valve, preventing the fuel from exceeding a level predetermined by the float level setting.
