Re: [DML] Carburete a DeLorean at DCS'12?



Bill: Don't forget that your conversion method involves cutting the
throttle cable tube. Not easily reversible.

Marc: raw fuel does not get dumped into a catalytic converter unless
something in the fuel system is wrong. This can happen in any fuel system
regardless of delivery method. Most people are aware of this, but I thought
I would mention it in public since your suggestion is that carburetors
inherently run rich.

That is all I have to say on the matter; y'all can fight it out amongst
yourselves if you wish.
