Abstract
A limiter cap assembly of a carburetor for a two cycle engine restricts maximum and minimum fuel amounts. The limiter cap assembly has a first cap engaged telescopically to the end of a low speed needle valve and a second cap engaged telescopically to the end of a high speed needle valve. The first and second caps are identical, each having a first tab and a second tab. The first tab sets the maximum fuel amount by contacting the adjacent cap and the second tab sets the minimum fuel amount by also engaging the adjacent cap. The first and second tabs are axially spaced apart so as not to obstruct rotation of the adjacent cap via the adjacent tabs. A housing having a lid encompasses the first and second caps. The caps each have a plurality of projections which engage an inner edge of the lid, thereby, provisionally staging the caps to the carburetor while final needle valve adjustments are made.
