The Model "BC" Carburetor
incorporates several distinct new features. Foremost of these features is
the concentric float bowl, which completely encompasses the main bore of
the carburetor. This float bowl concentricity in conjunction with the
centrally located main discharge nozzle prevents any fuel loss on road
inclines. Regardless of any angle the car may assume, the fuel level is at
all times below the nozzle spill point.
A second feature of the Model
"BC" Carburetor is the unique design of the Main Well Assembly. This
assembly contains the main metering jet and power valve. It is attached to
the carburetor air horn and suspended in the float bowl.
In the Model "BC" Carburetor, due
to the suspension of the main well in the bowl, engine heat cannot be
directly transmitted to the main passageway through the main metering
jet.
The Model "BC" Carburetor
incorporates the conventional six systems of carburetion: Idle, Part
Throttle, Power, Pump. Float and Choke. Each of the systems is basically
simple and can be readily traced and understood. |
