How a 2 Stroke Carburetor Works, Fuel Pump & Metering

Ғылым және технология

In this video I explain how a 2 stroke carburetor works. I have 3D Printed a large scale model to make it easier to see. I also 3D Printed sections of the carburetor so you can see the internal workings.

    Walbro should adopt this video as their main (and only) tutoring source to educate their engineers. I am a retired computer engineering prof from a local university, and I can vouch that this is an amazing piece of work done by Mr. Gould. I searched in the internet to get a good understanding how a Walbro carb worked because I wanted to learn about RC gas engines, but couldn't find anything substantial, just bits and pieces of info published by people who didn't know the entire mechanism. Finally, I started examining Walbro diagrams on Walbro website, trying to figure out the exact mechanism. I found out most of these diagrams were sketched for people who were already very familiar to Walbro carb, but didn't make too much sense to me (or novices that don't know too much about carbs). I am glad I stumbled across this video. Thank you again.

    I totally agree with "The Lawnmower Lady" and "David Mansfield". Your desire to educate others on something that is very hard to find information on is astounding, and your attention to detail and accuracy is almost beyond belief. I want to thank you for your efforts. I plan on using 2-cycle carburetors on 4 cycle engines, because the 2-cycle carbs can be set up as down-draft instead of the normal side-draft, allowing a longer intake manifold for added fuel mixture velocity. I was concerned with how to operate the pulse fuel pump, and to complicate matters, I confused the fuel metering diaphragm as the fuel pump. I plan to use a stainless steel tube inserted into the exhaust manifold so that the high velocity exhaust gas will create a vacuum in the SS tube which will go the the fuel pump pulse tube/entrance and pull the diaphragm against a spring to complete the push-pull action. After seeing this video, I now know that I can do it. Thanks again!
