Abstract
An improved fuel bowl assembly adapted to be detachably mounted upon a main carburetor body minimizes exposure of sealing gaskets to standing heads of fuel contained in the bowl and affords ready access to the interior of the bowl without risk of fuel spillage. A one piece housing is formed with a bathtub-like fuel bowl chamber whose open top is closed by a detachable cover. The front wall of the housing is provided with fuel and air bleed passages so arranged that fuel flowing from the bowl through these passages must rise above the normal level of fuel maintained in the bowl before exposure to the gasket which seals the front surface of the front wall of the housing to the side of the main carburetor body. A float valve mounted on the bottom side of the cover controls the flow of fuel from an inlet passage in the cover to maintain a desired level of fuel in the bowl, and the moving parts of an accelerating pump are also mounted on the cover. Thus, removal of the cover provides complete access to the float valve, accelerating pump and the interior of the bowl without requiring detaching the bowl assembly from the main carburetor body.
