For the old-time car lover, the very existence of the carburetor was said to be paramount to engine performance. Since fuel injection systems represent modern technology, carburetors still remain kings in the realm of classic and high-performance cars. Hence, here at CFM Carb Rebuilds, we focus our energies on bringing new life to old-school engines by rebuilding carburetors to their full operational capability. Why do we care about that?
The Purpose of a Carburetor
The job of a carburetor is to combine air and fuel in the right ratio for combustion. When perfectly functioning, it provides smooth acceleration, steady idling, and good mileage. But over time, parts may get worn out, gaskets may lose their elasticity, and deposits may clog orifice jets and passages. This leads to lower carburetor performance, thereby forcing your vehicle to face problems such as hard starting, irregular idling, or erratic throttle response.
Rebuilding vs. Replacement
Checking in the mind of every motorist is the notion of whether or not they should just replace the carburetor when it malfunctions. However, replacement could mean huge costly discounts on its performance if not tuned properly. Whereas rebuilding is about putting the original carburetor back together with quality parts and cleaning it with precision to save money and keep it original.
At CFM Carb Rebuilds, we treat every carburetor like a piece of engineering history. Whether it is Holley, Edelbrock, Rochester, or Weber, we meticulously disassemble, clean, inspect, and replace worn-out parts to factory standards or better.
What Are The Advantages Of Rebuilding A Carburetor?
- Better Engine Performance – A rebuilt carburetor works efficiently for smoother operation, stronger acceleration, and responsive throttle control.
- Better Gas Mileage – Maintaining the proper air-fuel ratio ensures fuel is burned efficiently, which avoids the possibility of fuel wastage.
- Longer Engine Life – Cleaned and rebuilt carburetors reduce the chances of damage caused to an engine from lean or rich fuel mixtures.
- Keeping Original Components – If restoring a vintage vehicle, keeping original parts will keep it authentic and further increase its value.
- Economical – In many cases, carburetor rebuilding works out far cheaper than purchasing a new carburetor, especially if the carburetor is a rare or discontinued model.
