Carburetor
Depress the gas pedal, this input allows the choke butterfly to set, the fast idle cam to
rotate into position and causes the accelerator pump to discharge fuel into the venturi.
As the engine spins, fuel pressure is provided and vacuum is created. The fuel enters
the float bowl through an inline filter. The filtered fuel passes through the float needle
jet. As the fuel level rises in the float bowl, it fills the accelerator pump. A float
connected to the float needle rises and shuts the fuel flow into the carburetor off.
(When cold) This vacuum pulls air from the heat stove on the exhaust manifold into the
air cleaner snorkel. (When hot) A vacuum operated damper door (on the snorkel)
closes and bypasses the heat-stove air, pulling air directly into the snorkel. Air enters
the air cleaner plenum. The air is then filtered. The choke, depending on the
temperature (if cold) will block air from entering the carburetor. The fast idle cam holds
the throttle open to increase engine RPM. A bimetallic coil on the intake manifold
connected to the choke with a rod expands and contracts. This opens and closes the
choke butterfly valve and rotates the fast idle cam. As the air passes into the top of the
carburetor's venturi, Bernoulli's principal is invoked. The airspeed is increased and
pressure decreased. Inside the venturi are ports where fuel is introduced. These ports
are jetted. Fuel is supplied to these jets from the fuel bowl. Mixture screws are used to
meter a specific amount of fuel through these jets. The air is pulled and passes the
throttle butterfly valve. In this deceased area of pressure, fuel is sucked out of the
ports. The fuel-air mixture now enters the intake manifold, where it's channeled into
the cylinder heads and awaits intake valve opening. Upon opening, the mixture is
pulled in the combustion chamber. As the engine starts, vacuum increase. This
increase in vacuum operates a choke pull off. This opens the choke butterfly enough to
allow more air to pass until the engine temperature operates the bimetallic coil. As the
bimetallic coil heats up and the choke opens, the fast idle cam is released as the gas
pedal is depressed. The accelerator pump adds a burst of fuel for acceleration
purposes.
