Oldsmobile Cutlass Carburetor
The Carburetor of Oldsmobile Cutlass vehicles is a vital system that mixes air and fuel to provide the right proportions for burning within the cylinder of the vehicle's engine. Technically, this commonly single, double, or quad carburetor employs pressure differences and the narrowing or venturi tapered passage to suck in air and mix or atomize gasoline from the float chamber into the airstream. The accelerator pedal controls the position of the throttle plate to regulate the flow of air and fuel that gets into the cylinder in accordance with the demands of the engine, and other strategies such as power valves or metering rods offers a optimum mixture when the throttle plate is opened full. The carburetor also consists of parts such as the accelerator pump for ensuring rapid supply of fuel, choke plate in order to manage the cold starts, and finally there are the secondary barrels for higher power demands. It is installed on the intake manifold, and its purpose concerns the proper work of the Oldsmobile Cutlass car engine in terms of efficiency and performance.

- Q: What are the proper procedures for adjusting idle speed and checking engine speed in Rochester M2M Series Carburetor on Oldsmobile Cutlass?A: If there is inconsistency between the information on the Decal label and that in the Specifications, then the information on the Decal label is considered to be correct. Adjustment of the idle speed must be done when the engine is thoroughly warmed up, air cleaner installed unless otherwise directed, with proper ignition timing and dwell angle installed and it is important that all the emission control equipment are operative. To measure engine speed use an external tachometer as per the manufacturer's recommendations. If equipped, loosen the electrical lead from the idle speed solenoid and then turn the base idle speed screw to the 'X' rpm indicated on the emissions label with the shift lever in Drive for automatic transaxle or in Neutral for manual transaxle. Both idle mixture screws receive factory preset and are closed; they are only adjusted at the time of carburetor overhaul, when the throttle body is replaced, or in cases of high emissions registered during inspection. The mixture screws are thus sealed, and to check it, an artificial enrichment procedure using propane gas is required because otherwise it is against the law.

For installation reverse the removal process and make sure to fill the carburetor bowl with fuel this will make it easier when starting and reduce battery draw. Change gaskets and also, while at it, angle trim and check the idle speed and mixture settings as required.
