SmartCarb Fuel Systems

The SmartCarb is the culmination of more than 50 years of development. Its pedigree comes from a long line of single-circuit, flat-slide carburetors, including the Lake Injector, Pos-a-Fuel, Lectron ( How Do They Compare? ), Ei Blue Magnum, and Quicksilver. The SmartCarb combines the best features from earlier flat-slide, variable-venturi carbureto... r designs and incorporates design features developed by SmartCarb Fuel Systems, making it a real world solution to satisfying emissions regulations and OEM performance requirements in small engine applications worldwide. We are currently focused on the off-road 2-stroke and 4-stroke powersports market, offering 25, 28, 36, 38, and 40mm SmartCarb sizes. Application driven development is underway, most recently involving testing for integration in UAVs, mini-motocross bikes, alcohol junior dragsters, micro-sprint carts, snowmobiles, paragliders, and outboard marine engines. The SmartCarb has proven itself to be viable in leisure and competitive applications and is capable of competing directly with electronic fuel injection for both passing emissions regulations and meeting performance requirements. The SmartCarb is a precision fuel and air metering instrument that provides extremely fine fuel atomization, precise air/fuel mixture control, and ambient air density compensation. All of these innovative features are delivered in the format of a single-circuit, flat-slide, variable-venturi, jet-less carburetor. Superior fuel atomization occurs via proprietary venturi features designed to concentrate and accelerate airflow past a metering rod. This makes for a very high signal at the metering rod, producing fuel droplets that are smaller and more highly atomized than those produced by modern EFI systems and other conventional carburetors. The benefits of fine fuel atomization include: INCREASED POWER. The SmartCarb provides up to 10% more horsepower spread over a broader power curve when compared to competing systems. INCREASED FUEL ECONOMY. Testing shows and customer ...Read More
