A fuel bowl is disclosed. The fuel bowl comprises a body having an interior opposite an exterior, four sides, and a bottom opposite an opening. The opening is configured to be in fluid communication with a carburetor or an adaptor. The fuel bowl also comprises a fuel inlet port disposed in at least one of the four sides and configured to receive a gaseous fuel from a fuel regulator. The gaseous fuel expands and contracts within the body. A carburetor system is also disclosed. The carburetor system comprises a gaseous fuel, a fuel regulator configured to receive and deliver the gaseous fuel, a fuel bowl in fluid communication with the fuel regulator and a carburetor, a final fuel metering restriction disposed in an inlet supply port of a cylinder of the carburetor, and a venturi disposed in the carburetor.

Adjustable venturi assemblies and methods of using adjustable venturi assemblies are disclosed. In one aspect, a venturi assembly for injecting a secondary fluid into a primary fluid flow path is provided. The venturi assembly comprises a nozzle, a constricted section in fluid communication with the nozzle, a secondary fluid conduit in fluid communication with the nozzle, and a flow adjusting device. The nozzle and constricted section together define the primary fluid flow path along a first axis. The secondary fluid conduit is for transporting secondary fluid from the secondary fluid reservoir to the constricted section along a second axis. The flow adjusting device is positioned opposite the secondary fluid conduit and is configured to alter a velocity of fluid flowing along the primary fluid flow path by extending into a portion of the constricted section along the second axis.
