Abstract
For determining the amount of wear of the movable parts of a carburetor, the throttle of the carburetor is retained in a position where it defines a predetermined cross-sectional flow area with the whole of the induction passage. That predetermined area is the area for which, when the carburetor was new, the edge of the throttle was midway along the bypass aperture of the idling circuit. The degree of vacuum in the idling circuit of the carburetor is then compared with a reference value which is the degree of vacuum which prevails on the carburetor in brand new condition under the same operating conditions.
