How to Clean a Carburetor

Posted by admin under Automotive

The carburetor is a part of the engine that allows it to do the job it is intended to do. It carefully mixes the right amount of air and fuel to allow combustion and produce power. Without this device, the engines would not work. During the 1980s this device was replaced by the automatic fuel injector. However, the carburetor is still very common in some high-performance vehicles, as well as motorcycles and many other small engines.

Maintenance Steps

It is very important to keep the carburetor clean for it to run properly. If the carburetor is not periodically cleaned and maintained, its ability to regulate the combustion can seriously be compromised, resulting in the motor to not run properly.

The first step in keeping your carburetor running properly is to remove it from your motor. After you have done so you will be able to clean it, disassemble it, and keep it in running condition.

How to Clean

After you remove the carburetor from the motor, cleaning it in a cleaning solvent would be the first thing you should do. You can do this by using a special tool designed for cleaning carburetors. After you have cleaned the carburetor with the cleaning solvent, as well as finished disassembling it, you must then make sure that all ports and jets are cleared. You can accomplish this by flushing out these parts with compressed air.

It is very important that you use proper care when cleaning out the carburetor. If you intend to do this, make sure that you use the proper equipment necessary perform this function. Do not use wires, or other machine-powered products to clean the carburetor. This is because the carburetor is carefully calibrated to a specific setting. Using those products might damage the product.

How to Rebuild Carburetors

Posted by admin under Automotive

Rebuilding a carburetor is like the final exam prior to graduating for car enthusiasts. Many people who are interested in cars and work on engines will rebuild carburetor at one point in their lives. However, there are many things you must remember before attempting to disassemble and rebuild a carburetor.

There are two types of carburetors being used by equipment powered by small engines. The two types are the “bowl type,” and the “diaphragm type.” Each type of carburetor has a different way of being rebuilt.

Rebuilding Tips

The most important step when dealing with attempting to rebuild a carburetor is to make sure that you are working in a well lit, as well as clean, working area. This is because the carburetor parts are very small and can easily be lost. When disassembling the carburetor, you will need to pay extra attention as to where each part goes, and how every part came off. You should also take note that these parts, such as the springs attached to the carburetor’s linkage, can easily be damaged. Special care is needed when attempting to disassemble this product.

Prior to putting the carburetor together, you should make sure that all of the parts are clean. By using a canned aerosol carburetor spray cleaner you should be able to clean off the parts thoroughly. Use this spray cleaner to clean every part of the carburetor. However, you should be very careful when using the canned aerosol automotive carburetor spray. The contents of the can are highly flammable.

It is very important to make sure that all the parts of the carburetor are clean and free of contaminants. Do not clean the parts with a wire cleaner, due to the fact that it can misalign the calibrated parts within the carburetor.

Auto Fuel Reformulator And How It Works

Posted by admin under Automotive

In previous articles I covered this cost effective solution to help industry and consumers meet environmental regulations and relieve skyrocketing fuel prices, and tests have proven that commercial fleets on average increase fuel mileage between 7% and 19% and reduce emissions by more than 30% using this new fuel additive.

What is Ethos FR and how does it work to reduce fuel consumption and reduce toxic emissions?

Basically it is a combination of high quality non-toxic specially designed esters that uses the elements of Carbon, Oxygen and Hydrogen. This reformulates any fuel and provides cleaning and lubrication for engines. All of the internal components benefit from the cleansing and lubricating action including the spark plugs, fuel lines, filters, carburetors, and injectors. Its the deposits from combustion and fuel that causes engines to wear and work harder to produce power. The more engines have to work, the more fuel it burns. The reformulated fuel returns the engine closer to the manufacturers specifications. Carbon deposits, that causes fuel to combust incompletely which results in wasted fuel that in turn results in toxic emissions, are removed resulting in a cleaner much more lubricated engine, requiring less maintenance.
