==Introduction== Essentially a carburetor is a solution to the problem that fuel comes in liquid form and needs to end up as a vapor to be combusted. Generally a carburetor is bolted to the top or side of an intake manifold (depending on the type) and uses the air rushing into the engine to atomize gasoline released from a port or "jet." Different brands of carburetors accomplish this in several slightly different ways, but the concept is the same for all.
