Feedback Carburetor

The specially calibrated carburetor has 2 metering rods which vary idle and main fuel mixtures when they are moved. The rods are attached to vacuum diaphragms controlled by a signal from the vacuum regulator. The idle mixture rod controls an air bleed, and the main mixture rod controls a fuel passage.
