Of the three types of carburetors used on large, high-performance aircraft engines manufactured in the United States during World War II, the Bendix-Stromberg pressure carburetor was the one most commonly found. The other two carburetor types were manufactured by Chandler Groves (later Holley Carburetor Company) and Chandler Evans Control ...
Weber carburetors are marked with a model code on the mounting flange, the body, or on the cover of the float chamber. [7] This begins with a number which originally indicated the diameter (in millimetres) of the throttle bore, but later lost this significance.
