A carburetor mixes fuel and air before it hits the engine to give it the most effect in terms of 'power'.

Carbs are a bit rare these days as most modern vehicles are 'fuel-injected' directly into a more efficient engine.

@Picklebobble2 Hmmm.. okay. Thanks. How come so expensive?

@Bratt Largely obsolete i suspect. They still put them on smaller cars but i think the fuel injection system is how most vehicles run these days.

You might find decent second-hand/reconditioned ones out there.

That is not expensive @Bratt

@Chevy454 Really?

@Bratt It shouldn't cost that much. Here they're sold for €60-70 🤔

(If I found the correct one)
