Carburetor to speed up pump fault judgment
2025-10-05 09:08:03
Many drivers have faced this frustrating situation: after a normal day of driving, everything seems to be working fine. The next morning, when they try to start the car, it won't turn over. They check the ignition system, clean the points, adjust the gap, but nothing helps. They observe the high-tension lead for each cylinder and see sparks, check the oil level and the float chamber in the carburetor, which all look normal. Despite repeated attempts, the engine still refuses to start. They even replace the capacitor and the ignition coil, but the problem remains.
After a thorough inspection, it turns out the issue lies with the carburetor's acceleration pump. Here's how the process goes: First, check if the throttle lever’s connecting rod (plunger) or the speed nut (diaphragm) is disconnected. Then, remove the air filter and use a small cardboard stick inserted into the throat. While holding the throttle open, pull the stick out. If the stick isn’t wet, that means the acceleration pump isn’t delivering fuel. Next, remove the acceleration nozzle’s screws and gently insert a thin copper wire to test the check valve. Then, move the throttle lever again. If no fuel is injected, the pump bowl may be damaged or clogged, or the check valve could be worn or stuck.
If there’s no fuel spray, it’s likely the check valve is faulty. Replacing or reseating the check valve can often fix the issue. This is because a worn or loose check valve can cause the mixture to become too rich, leading to increased fuel consumption and difficulty starting the vehicle. It's an overlooked component, but one that plays a crucial role in smooth engine performance. Understanding how to diagnose and repair it can save time and money in the long run.
