A testing device for general aviation carburetors and fuel servos. The testing device is capable of replicating carburetor operating characteristics and using sensors to monitor and record the operating characteristics of both horizontal and vertical type carburetors, and compare the data received with predefined values. The testing device measures both test fluid and air flow through a carburetor. A moveable camera is placed within the throttle body of the carburetor being tested providing visual inspection of the fluid atomization with snap shot capability. The testing device also includes flow sensors to record the performance of the carburetor, providing automated data collection with memory storage. The device is fully portable with lockable caster wheels.

A carburetor with rotary valve includes an idle adjustment needle with an eccentric hole, accordingly a special adjustment tool used for idle adjustment needle has an eccentric boss; a carburetor with rotary valve includes an idle adjustment needle with an eccentric boss, accordingly a special adjustment tool used for idle adjustment needle has an eccentric hole. The idle adjustment needle must be cooperated with the special adjustment tool to carry out the adjustment, thus non-professional user can not casually adjust the fuel oil needle without the special tool, so that the engine can be maintained in the best setting condition to ensure the engine exhaust to meet the environmental protection requirement.

A system of optimizing carburetor operation comprising: a carburetor controller; an air-fuel ratio sensor; a first communication channel; a processor; a power source; a non-transitory computer-readable memory element; a second communication channel for transmitting and receiving data; an external device; wherein said sensor sample air-fuel ratio in said carburetor; said sensor send said air-fuel ratio information via said first communication channel to said processor; said processor store it in said non-transitory computer-readable memory element; and said processor also send said information to said external device via said second communication channel. A carburetor spacer apparatus with multiple ports is also presented.
