Are you a young guy? They were called carburetors, and we let them die (almost) for a whole lot of reasons: Vaporlock, carburator icing, ide jet adjustments, multi-jet balancing, inability to control fuel metering for individual cylinders -- just to name a few.

They said that adjusting them was science -- more like a black art to a lot of us that tried to do it.

It is the ignorant among us that will eventually destroy us all.
