Carburetor function
The carburetor supplies a mixture of fuel and air to the
engine. The quantity of this mixture is controlled by the
throttle. The proportions of fuel and air in the mixture is
controlled by the adjustable high and low speed jets.
The jets must be correctly adjusted for the engine to
have maximum power at different speeds. A correctly
adjusted carburetor gives the engine maximum power at
different speeds. It also gives the engine a smooth idle
speed and makes it possible to increase engine speed
quickly.
The correct adjustment of the carburetor can change if
the air moisture, temperature and air pressure changes.
The carburetor has 3 adjustment controls.
• L = low speed jet
• H = high speed jet
• T = idle speed
