  5. tvs is often referred to as tps. Not sure on afm sticking. It would certainly reduce air flow if the flap stuck.

  11. You kids and your late model modern cars!
  12. Don't use it on a fire! lol
  13. It is for aligning the nozzle sleeve (that holds the jet) to the centre of the piston. If you disassemble the bottom of the carb, you will find the nozzle sleeve has freedom to be repositioned within the nozzle sleeve set screw:
  14. I think @zKars can fill 10 pages!

  22. I think they want to hide the 370z-ness 😞
  23. It's "Slosh". When the car accelerates, the fuel sloshes to the back side of the bowl, when the car decelerates, the fuel sloshes to the front. This causes the float to change its height slightly. The acceleration also affects the float. If acceleration of water places more at the back wall of the bowl, the water pressure will push the float towards the front of the bowl (put a rubber duck in a bucket of water then spin it on a turntable. The Duck will be forced towards the centre|). It is a very complex physics problem and the key is that it affects both carbs in the opposite way due to hinge location asymmetry.
