You need special carb cleaner for 2 stroke engines. Since the oil in the fuel lubes the internals carb cleaner will strip off the oil leaving the cylinders to years worth of damage in a matter of seconds. Always use carb cleaner for 2 stroke engines.

Is carburetor an engine part?

Though it sits on top of the engine a carburetor is actually a part of the the fuel delivery system. The carburetor is no longer a part of the modern automobile, being replace by the electronic fuel injection system in the late 1980's - early 1990's.


How can you measure the hp of a 357 cc engine?

HP and displacement are only loosely related and dependent on other factors like engine design, carburetor size(mostly venturi), bore and stroke, etc. A dynomometer actually measures HP though there are lengthy mathematical formulas commonly used, also.


What Could cause a 1994 Mazda MX6 to not start even though it has spark?

You can try spraying some carburetor cleaner into the intake by way of a vacuum line or pcv hose Just a little dab will do you. If the engine tries to start it would indicate that you have a fuel problem.


Why 2 stroke engine want mixture of petrol and oil?

because, unlike a 4 stroke it doesn't have engine oil lubricating all the engine components, so in the fuel mixture there is oil mixed in to do this job, it is not as effective as the 4 stroke idea though.... which is usually why 2 stroke engines wear and tear more of time .

How do you adjust carburetor on 95 Chevy 5.7?

The 95 engines do not have a carburetor, They are fuel injected / TBI Throttle Body Injection and there is no ajustment on them what so ever. You have other problems. Is check engine light on ?? If so then have engine scaned with an engine scanner and you will find your problem. I have a 95 Chevy 5.7 and its got a carburetor. I really don't know anything a bout them though. Sorry


Do 47cc Pocket bikes need oil changes?

No. Because the engine is a two stroke. Make sure the engine is a two stroke though. If it is a tiny engine with 1 gear and a pull starter and makes a high pitch sound it is probably a two stroke. Consult your owners manuel or the manufacturer of the bike to see if it is a two stroke or four stroke engine. You will have to change the oil if it is a four stroke, but I think most 47 and not 49 cc bikes are two stroke. If it is a two stroke, no oil changes are required, but you will need to mix a certain amount of 2 stroke engine oil with the fuel. Your owners manuel or manufacturer should be able to tell you the ratio per gallon of gas you will need. Hopefully, this will help.


Why would a Nissan Sentra 2002 hesitate on acceleration?

It could very well be a carbon build up on the valves. I would try some engine cleaner and injector cleaner first though.


Is the Pontiac 400 engine the same block as the 455 engine with a different stroke and bore?

Basicly the same design, Yes, The crankshafts do not interchange though since the 455 has 3.25" main journals and the 400 has 3.00" mains. Heads, intakes, cams, oil pans, oil pumps, distributors, ect all interchange though. 400 is 4.12 bore 3.75 stroke 455 is 4.15 bore 4.21 stroke


Can you use gas that has 4 cycle engine oil in a 2 cycle engine?

This question is a bit weird, as 4-stroke engines don't need oil in the fuel. Many 2-stroke engines however do need oil in their fuel, and it should preferably be a special 2-stroke oil. That oil dissolves better and burns cleaner. If you don't have 2-stroke oil the stock recommendation is to use engine oil, but at a higher concentration - say the double. This is to be seen as an emergency measure though, and the engine won't run as well.May I interupt Dabac? Maybe our enquirer has got it backwards and wants to burn some left over two stroke fuel in his four stroke car. If so, it will be quite safe in a once off or an emergency. do not, however, make a habit it or your sparkplugs,valves and exhaust system will suffer.I have a straight forward answer to the question that was asked. NO! Use only 2 cycle oil in a 2 cycle engine. It is foolish to use anything else and there is no good reason to do so.


What connects the carburetor and the engine on a gas scooter?

the air filter (depending on the engine will) two long bolts will go through the air filter and carb and will connect to the intake which should already be attached to the engine. the air filter will sometimes have a case on it though.


How do you convert fuel injection into carburetor 350 Chevy?

Change intake manifolds to a manifold that accepts a carburetor. That's really all you need to do. I'd recommend against it though, because EFI is a LOT more efficient than a carburetor is. HP will likely go down while fuel consumption and emissions will likely go up. Now it will work just fine because there is very little difference internally between an engine that uses a carburetor and an engine that is fuel injected.
