Carburetors
Improves Flight Safety • Lower Operating Cost • Superior Quality
Newer, Robust Gasket Material
- Eliminates legacy gasket relaxation causing body-to-bowl fuel leaks (For more information see Service Bulletin MSA SB-17 & Lycoming SB 366B)
Increased Float Clearance in Bowl
- Larger machined cavity allowing more clearance preventing floats from sticking (For more information see Service Bulletin MSA SB-4)
- Increased fluid volume for optimal upper range performance
Stronger & Lighter Main Body Material
- AL 6061-T6 Billet Machined Throttle Body to Bowl
- 66% higher yield strength over legacy cast material
- Eliminates drain plug thread deterioriation causing leaks
- Legacy castings are prone to cracks and porosity
- AVStar's carburetors average a 15% reduction in weight by design resulting in lower operating costs
Corrosion Resistance
- Fully anodized billets have much higher corrosion resistance than legacy castings
- More stainless components in each fuel system
Performance
