Abstract
A mechanical fuel pump includes first and second flexible members disposed within a pump body. The first flexible member is deflected in timed sequence with a rotating engine member. Deflection of the second flexible member is limited to select the amount of fuel expelled from the pump for each engine cycle. A stop member is movable in response to movement of an engine governor and throttle to result in increased fuel and air being supplied when the engine encounters a load.
