Carbureter

The gasoline fills the carbureter, which is the thing which feeds the engine automatically. ❋ Unknown (1909)

“I need to check on that carbureter I patched back together.” ❋ Barbara Wright (2007)

The adjustment of the carbureter should be made per the above description of the stove, as the latter is used for meeting weather conditions and should be set as described. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

No change should be made in the carbureter adjustments until after an inspection has been made to determine if the trouble is in some other unit. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

This can be done by loosening the wing nut holding the warm air elbow "F" on the stove and also loosening the set screw holding this elbow in the air intake of carbureter, after which slide elbow out of air intake and revolve it -- 180 degrees about an horizontal axis and re-insert in carbureter air intake and lock in place with set screw. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

This change is all that is necessary in order to reduce the amount of heat applied to carbureter. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

The first means of control is in the warm air stove just described, which should be connected to the carbureter furnishing warm air to carbureter air intake in all seasons of the year when the outside air temperature is below 50° F., whenever the outside air temperature runs above this point cold air should be furnished to carbureter air intake. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

Main-Exhaust-Heat-Valve, thus allowing the increasing volume of the exhaust gases to pass on out through the main exhaust pipe without being deflected and by-passed to the carbureter heat-jacket as the motor speed increases. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

The carbureter and manifolds have been designed to utilize the exhaust gases of the engine to insure complete vaporization and a consequent minimum consumption of fuel. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

It should be noted that the gasoline lines are clear, that there is gasoline in the vacuum tank, that there are no leaks at connections between carbureter and engine, that the ignition system is in proper condition, and that there is even compression in all cylinders. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

The above procedure, it must be understood, will vary somewhat due to differences in locality, altitude and fuels used, but it should be borne in mind that the best economy can be had with cold air passing to the carbureter, and the stove should not be connected until the acceleration and performance of the job requires the use of warm air for the best results. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

"C" by means of the long connecting rod, in closed position with the closed or idling position of the throttle valve, thus providing for and causing all of the exhaust gases of the engine to pass through the heat jacket of the carbureter when engine is idling and to regulate the volume of this heat as throttle is opened by automatically opening the ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

The previous series 681 Nash Sixes of 1921, 1920, and 1919, which were equipped with the Model "E" Marvel Carbureter as standard equipment, can be very greatly improved by the installation of the Model "S" carbureter, exhaust damper body assembly necessary for same, and the hot air stove assembly that goes with this installation. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

The purpose of the carbureter heat jacket and valve in exhaust line with connections described, is to provide means for utilizing the heat of the exhaust gases of the motor for vaporization of the fuel supplied the engine by the carbureter and to do so automatically. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)

The main-exhaust-heat-valve "C" is connected by means of a lever and long connecting rod to the throttle lever of the carbureter so that when the throttle valve is operated the main-exhaust-valve is operated simultaneously with it. ❋ Anonymous (N/A)
