Shooters that vaporize fuel

Moparofficial,

Sorry you found my explanation 'irritating'. Funny, nobody else complained.....or found it irritating. What specifically was 'irritating'?
To answer your question about plugging the air bleed. Solid fuel will flow; at a greater rate because there is no atmospheric air to weaken the signal; out of the discharge port, but will not stop as the throttle is opened because it is now siphoning. It may/may not idle depending on mixture screw setting etc.
If your aim was to compare idle to acc pump action you are forgetting two important things:
- in the carbs being discussed, acc pump shooter nozzles are always above fuel level. Idle jet is below fuel level & is therefore subject to siphoning.
- acc pump ccts have a check valve under the nozzle to prevent pullover.
