Abstract
A retainer for plastic carburetors which eliminates the necessity for mating flanges bolted together and thus avoids distortion of the body due to clamping pressures. The carburetor body has male parts which insert into recesses in an engine block or heat dam to seal in relation thereto and a forked clamp embraces a necked portion of the carburetor body and is clamped in cantilever fashion so that the plastic body is retained securely without distortive forces.
