How to Determine if a Carburetor is Damaged?
1 Answers
Methods to determine if a carburetor is damaged: 1. Remove the air filter, ensure there is gasoline in the carburetor, and start the vehicle. If the vehicle doesn't start, spray carburetor cleaner directly into the carburetor's inlet. If the vehicle starts, it indicates a carburetor malfunction causing poor fuel supply; 2. If the car's carburetor is damaged, the ignition system's spark plug may burn out, and black smoke may appear when starting the vehicle. This can be observed by checking the ignition system; 3. Severe fuel wastage can lead to unstable throttle response, inability to supply fuel properly, incomplete combustion, and in severe cases, failure to start or weak driving performance. Additionally, the inability to filter impurities from gasoline can cause severe carbon buildup on the valve gasket and spark plug.
