Mikuni carburettor BS 36 SS from a Suzuki motorcycle Mikuni Corporation ( 株式会社ミクニ , Kabushiki gaisha Mikuni ) is a Japanese Automotive products manufacturing company. Their business activities is focused on carburetors, fuel injectors and other automobile and motorcycle related equipment.
Pre-1980 models use the twin 38 mm (1.5 in) constant velocity Mikuni carburetors that can be tuned by moving the needle clip position, or by replacing jets. In the carburetors the velocity of the fuel mixture through the venturi, regulated by the opening of the butterfly valves and engine speed, causes a pressure difference between the top and ...
The new Mikuni model BST38SS carburetors were 38 mm diameter and featured an additional "Powerjet" high-speed circuit that was used to fine-tune fuel mixture from 10,000 rpm to the rev limiter. In the unrestricted USA bikes, the Powerjet circuit was jetted with a "zero" sized jet and activating the circuit simply required replacing the "zero ...
Two-barrel downdraft Holley 2280 carburetor Cross-sectional schematic. A carburetor (also spelled carburettor or carburetter) [1] [2] [3] is a device used by a gasoline internal combustion engine to control and mix air and fuel entering the engine. [4]
The Yamaha XS Eleven motorcycle, also called XS 1100 and XS 1.1, is a Japanese standard produced from late 1977 (MY1978) to 1983, powered by an air-cooled 1,101 cc (67.2 cu in) 4-stroke, DOHC inline four-cylinder engine mounted transversely in a duplex cradle frame with swingarm rear suspension, shaft drive, and telescopic forks.
Although the needle and jets were still offset, they were moved away from the side of the bore which simplified the needle mounting. Air for the pilot feed was taken from the outside of the carb through a drilling. The GP was available in four body sizes and in flange mounting only: [37] 15GP - 7/8, 15/16", 1" and 11/16" bore diameters
Carburetor heat (usually abbreviated to 'carb heat') is a system used in automobile and piston-powered light aircraft engines to prevent or clear carburetor icing. It consists of a moveable flap which draws hot air into the engine intake. The air is drawn from the heat stove, a metal plate around the (very hot) exhaust manifold.
The Fish carburetor was also sensitive to mass airflow, rather than volume airflow, making it self-compensating for changes due to temperature or altitude. [ 1 ] A second problem with the conventional carburetor was its good performance in steady conditions, but poor progression: its dynamic ability to respond, such as when suddenly opening the ...
