What criteria drive the dimension of a carburetor throath diameter?
Is it fair to assume that a carb correct for a 1 cylinder 4 strokes is good for up to 4 cylinder since they intake one at the time?
I suppose a minimum air speed is required to atomize and suck the fuel but too much restriction can starve the engine.
What happen to the fuel mixture ratio when the throttle closes?
Less air at higher velocity lower pressure? Would that pull more fuel making it rich?
In other words I have no idea how the Physic of a carb works.
