Relationship with throttle opening
The flow of the fuel through the carburetor main
system is controlled by the main jet and then, it is
further regulated by the area between the main
nozzle and the jet needle. On the relationship
between the fuel flow and the throttle opening,
the fuel flow relates to the jet needle straight por-
tion diameter around 1/8 to 1/4 throttle opening,
whereas around 1/4 to 1/1 throttle opening it
relates to the taper starting position and to the
clip position.
Therefore, the fuel flow is balanced at each stage
of throttle opening by the combination of the jet
needle straight portion diameter, taper starting
position and clip position.
