What does Feedback mean?

"Carburetor w/Feedback" = Computer Controlled Carburetor

 

The easiest way for you to know if you have a Feedback carburetor or a Non-Feedback carburetor is to see if you have a "Check Engine Light" on your Dashboard.

 


 

Follow these easy steps to find out what type of Carburetor you have.

1. Move key to the "On" Switch.

2. Look at all the pretty lights that come on the dashboard

3. Look for the "Service Engine Light" or "Check Engine Light" on the dashboard of your Vehicle

4. Cross your fingers and hope you do not have a "Check Engine Light" or "Service Engine Light"

5. If you have a check engine light, look for carburetors that say "w/Feedback"

6. If you do not have a check engine light, look for carburetor that say "w/o Feedback or Non-Feedback"

 

Please Note: California requires you have to OEM carburetors for Emssion Purposes :(

We here at carburetor exchange have a Can-do-attitude, Yes! We can send you pictures, via email for people that have computers or fax for people that only have a fax machine.

 

When you say “Engine Test” what does that mean?

We have live engines on stands that we use for testing purposes only. We test for vacuum leaks, flooding, bleed clogs, etc. we also adjust the carburetors, we adjust the Mixture idle screws, that way it is not burning to rich where the fuel smell is bad and its not running to lean, where you get a rough hesitation. On top of that we adjust the idle so it is not too high or too low and we even set the fast idle for cold start, that way if you are in a quick hurry in the morning the car will be easier to start at cold operation.

 

So what does it mean to remanufacture a carburetor?

When we remanufacture a carburetor there is more than just washing metals and installing parts, its adding bushings in the throttle shaft to avoid vacuum leaks, making necessary adjustments to leave the carburetor running perfect. checking carburetors on a 4-gas analyzer for proper Gas readings.

 

I don’t have a credit card, what can I do?
