Frequently Asked Question
What are the three types of carburetors?
The three main carburetor types are updraft, downdraft, and sidedraft designs, each offering different fuel pressure characteristics and idle circuit configurations. The FST carb utilizes downdraft design for optimal precise fuel control, featuring adjustable idle mixture screws and variable idle speed settings perfect for hot rods.
How does a downdraft carburetor work?
A downdraft carburetor works by drawing air downward through the venturi, creating vacuum that pulls fuel through the idle circuit and main jets for precise fuel control. The FST carb's downdraft design optimizes fuel pressure flow while utilizing adjustable idle mixture screws to fine-tune idle speed for hot rods and performance applications.
How to tell if your carburetor is bad?
Signs of a bad carburetor include poor idle speed control, difficult starting, and inconsistent fuel pressure delivery, often requiring adjustment of idle mixture screws or idle circuit cleaning. The FST carb's robust design minimizes these issues, but symptoms still warrant attention, especially in hot rods with precise fuel control requirements.
