-  * **Side view** 
-    * Air intake from the airbox. 
-    * Choke valve seat. 
-    * Pilot screw seat. 
-    * Duct for the high intake vacuum that acts on the //air cut-off valve// diaphragm. 
-    * //Air cut-off valve//: air in (normally open). 
-    * //Air cut-off valve//: air out. 
-  * **Float chamber** 
-    * Main jet 
-    * Slow jet 
-    * Starter jet (choke/enrichment jet) 
-    * Float valve 
-    * Breath hole 
-  * **Vacuum chamber** 
-    * Air intake from the airbox. 
-    * Starter (choke enrichment) air supply passage. 
-    * Air intake for the //air cut-off valve//: normally open. It closes on deceleration (high rpm + throttle closed). 
-    * Air intake for the slow jet. 
-    * Air intake for the choke. 
-    * Small vent that connects the chambers above and below the diaphragm: it acts as a vacuum/pressure control and damping system. 
-  * **Airbox view** 
-    * Air intake for the pilot and the //air cut-off valve// circuits. 
-  * **Engine view, bottom** 
-    * Primary pilot outlet port. This is the main idle fuel outlet, controlled by slow jet and pilot screw. 
-    * Pilot progression ports. They provide staged extra fuel during throttle opening. 
-  * **Engine view, top** 
-    * Starter (enricher) outlet port and vacuum pickup port that operates the //air cut-off valve//. 
-  * **Slide, diaphragm, needle** 
-    * Slide lift holes: vacuum bleed holes that control how quickly pressure changes reach the above diaphragm chamber. 
-  * **Float bowl** 
-    * Drain screw. 
-    * Drain conduct.

 As the throtte plate is opened, the pressure difference betwneen the chambers above and below the diaphragm increases and the vacuum piston moves further upward. As the throtte plate is opened, the pressure difference betwneen the chambers above and below the diaphragm increases and the vacuum piston moves further upward.
Line 111: Line 80:
 The venturi opening increases and the needle is lifted further out of the the needle jet. The quantity of fuel and the volume of air are simultaneously increased and metered to the proportions of engine demand by the variable venturi and needle lift. With the vacuum piston fully upward, the venturi opening is fully enlarged and the needle jet opening exposure to the air stream is at its maximum, Air and fuel supplies are now available in quantities sufficient to meet all engine demands. The venturi opening increases and the needle is lifted further out of the the needle jet.
