Fuel control system for a carburetor

A fuel control system for a carburetor having a housing defining a throat through which air and fuel are drawn, said carburetor having pivotally positionable venturi plates disposed in the throat of the carburetor;

• and a reservoir;
• nozzle bar;
• and fuel supply connected in fluid-flow relation, said fuel control system comprising:
• a primary restrictor, said restrictor defining a passage therethrough of predetermined cross-sectional area, said restrictor leading to a conduit connecting the reservoir, primary restrictor and nozzle bar in fluid-flow relation;
• a primary adjustable jet having a screw-threadable adjustment member that controls the amount of fuel that is provided from said adjustable jet to the carburetor nozzle bar, said adjustment member having a conical forward end which engages a peripheral seat defining an annular flow passage when the adjustment member is displaced from the seat;
• a secondary restrictor connected in fluid-flow relation between the reservoir and the nozzle bar, said secondary restrictor having a spring-loaded plunger mounted in impeding fluid-flow relation to the fuel provided from the secondary restrictor to the nozzle bar;
• and a metering cam mounted in impeding relation axially of the plunger to prevent the extension thereof, said metering cam movement corresponding with the movement of the variable venturi plates disposed in the throat of the carburetor.
