ABSTRACT:
The position of the metering rod relative to the slide member of a carburetor is adjusted by rotation of an adjusting screw which slidably extends through an opening in a plate member fixedly mounted within a substantially vertical bore in the slide member. The upper end of the adjusting screw has an enlarged head in engagement with the upper surface of the plate member and is engageable with a suitable tool to rotate the adjusting screw. The lower end of the adjusting screw is threadably received within a threaded bore in the head portion of the metering rod which is slidably and nonrotatably received within the bore in the slide member. A helical spring member surrounds the adjusting screw and is disposed between the lower surface of the plate member and the head portion of the metering rod to urge the metering rod downwardly. Accordingly, rotation of the adjusting screw causes the metering rod to move upwardly or downwardly so as to vertically adjust it relative to the slide member.
