Abstract/Contents:Describes the processes and functions of carburetors and fuel pumps. Explains how the carburetor's piston creates a partial vacuum which causes air to fill the cylinder, how incoming air can be regulated by the choke and throttle plate, and how fuel entering the throat of the carburetor is atomized into fine droplets which convert to a vapor state to be burned. Also details how fuel pumps use diaphrams that are pushed and pulled with the cycles of the engine to import and export fuel without reversing the flow of fuel.
