Keep in mind that most recent cars (last 20 years?) Have injectors and do not use a carburetor.

Yeah? And? So? Keep in mind now, that for the most recent CPUs are no longer 8-bit (20 years?), yet 8 bit microcontrollers are all the fad. Not really sure what your point is? We're not allowed to be fascinated with old tech that still works and has merit in demonstrating how/why it worked?

Sure. I was just pointing it out for people wondering where this is on their car.

It wasn't any where near a car. It was on a garden tiller. Traditional ICE lawn equipment still uses carbs.

Speaking of which, I would ban these. It's ridiculous that fuel injection technology is universally used in cars for over 30 years, yet exhaust of garden equipment still stinks horribly. (oh, and also ban oil-burning two-strokes)

Right, in a thread about jet engines...

Not sure why you're so angry‽
