IntelliCarb Compensating Carburetor
The IntelliCarb Compensating Carburetor is designed to automatically adjust the air/fuel ratio when the air filter becomes restricted or partially clogged and maintains the engine’s correct RPM. IntelliCarb uses air from the clean side of the air filter to control the diaphragm and flow of fuel. As their air filter becomes dirty and less air is available for the carburetor, the IntelliCarb system adjusts the fuel flow to compensate for the decrease in airflow. This is in contrast to typical carburetors that utilize the air from the “dirty” side of the air box.
