Adjusting the idle speed gas 53. Features of K126 carburetors - design, setup and adjustment

Adjusting the GAZ-53 carburetor

The GAZ 53 carburetor has a two-chamber system, each of which operates on 4 cylinders. The throttle valve is equipped with a drive for both chambers at once, so fuel is dosed synchronously to all cylinders. To ensure rational fuel consumption at different engine modes, the carburetor is equipped with several systems for regulating the composition of the fuel mixture (FM).

This is what the carburetor installed on a GAZ 53 looks like

The GAZ-53 is equipped with a K-135 carburetor. The carburetor has a balanced float chamber. It is capable of simultaneously opening the throttle valves.

The carburetor was originally brand K126B, and its subsequent modification was K135 (K135M). Fundamentally, the models are almost no different, only the control circuit of the device has changed, and in the latest releases it was removed from float chamber convenient viewing window. Now it has become impossible to see the gasoline level.

Device

K-135 is emulsified, with two chambers and a falling flow.

The two chambers are independent of each other; through them, the combustible mixture is supplied to the cylinders through the intake pipe. One chamber serves cylinders 1 to 4, and the other serves all the others.

The air damper is located inside the float chamber and is equipped with two automatic valves. The main systems used in the carburetor operate on the principle of air braking of gasoline, except for the economizer.

In addition, each camera has its own system idle move, main dosing system and sprayers. The two carburetor chambers have in common only a cold engine starting system, an accelerator pump, partly an economizer, which has one valve for two chambers, and a drive mechanism. The jets located in the nozzle block and related to the economizer are installed separately on them.

Each idle system includes fuel and air jets, and two holes in the mixing chamber. A screw with a rubber ring is installed on the bottom hole. The screw is designed to regulate the composition of the combustible mixture. And the rubber seal prevents air from penetrating through the screw hole.

The air jet, in turn, plays the role of emulsifying gasoline.

The idle system cannot provide the required fuel consumption in all engine operating modes, so in addition to it, a main metering system is installed on the carburetor, which consists of diffusers: large and small, fuel and air jets and an emulsified tube.

Main dosing system

The basis of the carburetor is the main metering system (abbreviated as GDS). It ensures a constant composition of the vehicle and does not allow it to become lean or rich at medium engine speeds internal combustion(ICE). Each chamber in the system is equipped with one fuel and one air jet.

Idle system

The idle system is designed to ensure stable engine operation at idle speed ICE. The carburetor throttle valve should always be slightly open, and the gasoline mixture at idle speed (idle) enters the intake tract, bypassing the GDS. The position of the throttle axis is set by the quantity screw, and the quality screws (one for each chamber) allow you to enrich or lean the mixture at idle. The fuel consumption of the vehicle largely depends on the adjustment.

Float chamber

The float chamber is located in the main body and maintains the level of gasoline in the carburetor necessary for the normal operation of the engine power system. The main elements in it are a float and a locking mechanism, consisting of a needle with a membrane and a valve seat.

Economizer

The economizer system enriches the vehicle at high engine speeds with increasing load. The economizer has a valve that, when opened at maximum throttle valves releases a portion of additional fuel through channels bypassing the GDS.

Acceleration pump

In the K126 (K135) carburetor, the accelerator is a piston with a cuff that operates in a cylindrical channel. At the moment of sharp pressing of the accelerator (gas) pedal, the throttle valve drive, mechanically connected to the accelerator system, causes the piston to quickly move along the channel.

Diagram of the K126 carburetor with the names of all elements

Fuel is injected from the channel into the carburetor diffusers through a special sprayer, and the vehicle is enriched. The accelerator pump allows you to smoothly transition from idle to high speeds and allow the vehicle to move without jerks or dips.

Speed ​​limiter

The system does not allow exceeding a certain number of revolutions crankshaft due to incomplete opening of the throttle valve. The operation is based on pneumatics; due to the vacuum, the diaphragm in the pneumatic valve of the device moves, turning the throttle valve axis mechanically connected to the limiter assembly.

Starting system

The starting system ensures stable operation of a cold engine. The system consists of pneumatic valves located in the air damper and a system of levers that connect the throttle and air damper. When the choke cable is pulled, the air damper closes, the rods pull the throttle along with them and open it slightly.

When starting a cold engine, the valves in the air damper open under the influence of vacuum and add air to the carburetor, preventing the engine from stalling with a mixture that is too rich.

Carburetor malfunctions

There can be many different malfunctions in the carburetor of a GAZ 53 car, but all of them are associated with increased fuel consumption, regardless of whether the mixture enters the cylinders rich or lean. Besides increased consumption fuel the following symptoms of malfunctions are characteristic:

  • It's coming black smoke from the exhaust pipe. It is especially noticeable with a sharp increase in engine speed. In this case, shots may be fired into the silencer;
  • The engine is unstable at idle and may also stall at idle;
  • The engine does not develop speed, chokes, there are popping sounds. intake manifold;
  • At sharp acceleration V internal combustion engine operation failure occurs;
  • Sluggish acceleration of the car, but at high speeds the car drives normally;
  • Lack of power, engine does not develop speed;
  • Jerks when moving, especially noticeable when accelerating.

Carburetor repair for GAZ 53 truck

Any of the carburetor systems can be faulty, but most often the following occurs:


Repairing a carburetor first of all involves flushing and purging all systems. To do this, the carburetor is removed and disassembled to clean all the jets.

Adjustment

The K126B carburetor (also the K135 carburetor) has several adjustments:

  • idle move;
  • gasoline level in the float chamber;
  • piston stroke of the accelerator pump;
  • moment when the economizer system is turned on.

Only one adjustment is made without disassembling the carburetor itself - this is idling the engine. This procedure is performed most often; any driver can perform it. It is better to entrust the remaining adjustments to specialists, but there are often craftsmen who make any adjustments with their own hands.
For proper adjustment, the XX engine must be technically sound, all cylinders must work without interruption.

Idle speed adjustment:

  • with the engine turned off, tighten the quality screws of both chambers until the end, then unscrew each approximately 3 turns;
  • start the engine and warm it up to operating condition;
  • use the quantity screw to set the number of revolutions XX to approximately 600. There is no tachometer in the GAZ 53 car, so the revolutions are set by ear - they should not be too low or high;
  • we tighten one of the screws for quality and torque until interruptions in the operation of the internal combustion engine appear, then we move the screw back approximately one-eighth of a turn (until stable operation of the engine);
  • We do the same with the second camera;
  • use the quantity screw to set the required speed;
  • If necessary, use the quality screw to increase the speed if the engine stalls when you release the gas pedal.

Buying a K135 carburetor is not a problem - it is sold in many auto stores. True, the price for such a device is rather high - about 7000-8000 rubles. K126B can no longer be found in stores; it has long been discontinued. But they are often sold through advertisements, and you can buy a practically new carburetor (2500-3000 rubles). A repair kit for the K135 model costs on average 250-300 rubles.

Refill capacity fuel tank 90 l. The remaining fuel that is not produced does not exceed 0.5 liters. The drain plugs of the fuel tanks are equipped with a device that allows them to be sealed to ensure the safety of the fuel. The locking device of the plugs also has holes for installing seals.

The fuel tank of the GAZ-53 car is located under the cab floor and is attached to the car frame using brackets and clamps with gaskets. On the upper half of the tank there are flanges on which a flange with a fuel intake pipe 22 and a fuel level indicator sensor 4 are installed.

The lower half of the tank has drainer , which is closed by plug 21 with a conical thread. The filler neck 1 of the GAZ-53 fuel tank is attached to the cabin by means of a stepladder and a lining is connected to the tank nozzle with a rubber molded (oil- and petrol-resistant) hose 24. To ensure that the tank is filled with fuel, an air outlet tube is soldered into the filler neck, which is also connected to the air tube 19 with a rubber hose 29. Hose connections are tightened with clamps. The filler neck is closed with a plug, which is attached and pressed to the neck by means of three plate spring straps. The connection is sealed with a rubber (oil and petrol resistant) gasket. For normal operation of the fuel tank, the filler plug is equipped with inlet (air) and outlet (steam) valves. The exhaust valve opens at a pressure of 0.39 - 1.62 kPa, the intake valve - at a vacuum in the tank of 0.44 - 3.53 kPa. The GAZ-53 fuel line consists of a suction line and a discharge line. Fuel lines 1 and 28 (see Fig. 1) from fuel tank 2 to fuel pump 19 (suction line), as well as tube 24 included in pipeline 28, are made of brass tubes with an outer diameter of 10 mm. Fuel lines 18, 17 and tubes 11, 14 (discharge line) are made of brass tubes with an outer diameter of 8 mm. The thickness of the tube walls is 0.8-1.0 mm. An increase in the diameter of the GAZ-53 fuel line on the suction line to 10 mm is caused by improved operation of the power system under conditions of high (35 ° C or more) ambient temperatures. The connection points of the GAZ-53 fuel lines to the fittings of the sediment filter, fuel pump, fine fuel filter and carburetor are sealed using conical couplings 22 and union nuts 23. The fuel lines are attached to the car frame using brackets 21. In order to compensate for engine vibrations relative to the frame at the fuel line connection point An oil and petrol resistant rubber hose 20 with an internal braid is installed to the fuel pump, the connection of which to the brass tubes is sealed with clamps 26 with a screw 25 and a nut 27. The fuel intake pipe has a strainer 4 with a brass mesh No. 016 (1420 cells per 1 cm2). The flange of the fuel intake pipe, as well as the fuel level sensor, is sealed with oil- and petrol-resistant rubber gaskets 5 and secured with five screws 7 (for each), under the heads of which aluminum sealing washers are installed. Fuel filter-settler GAZ-53 (Fig. 2). The sediment filter is installed on the left side member of the vehicle. Filter with a plate filter element and a stamped steel housing (sump bowl).

The filter housing with stand assembly is connected to the cover 2 by means of a bolt 3. A paronite gasket 1 is installed between the housing and the cover. Inside the housing of the GAZ-53 filter-settler, a filter element 6 is installed on a rod, consisting of 170 ring-shaped aluminum plates 11 with a thickness of 0.15 mm . The plates are assembled on two racks 7 and are clamped by a spring 15 between the washer 16 and the plate 17. At the same time, the spring presses the filter element 6 against the filter cover 2. A gasket 5 is placed between the plate and the lid. The plates 11 of the filter elements have holes 12, which coincide for all plates and thus form a series of vertical channels, as well as two rows of stamped protrusions 13 0.05 mm high, thanks to which gaps are formed between the plates , equal to the height of the protrusions. Thus, the filter element can trap particles larger than 0.05 mm. The GAZ-53 gasoline pump (Fig. 3), type B9D, diaphragm, mechanically driven by an eccentric mounted on the engine cam shaft, is attached with two bolts to the timing gear cover on the front right side of the engine. A paronite gasket 0.6 mm thick is installed between the flange of the GAZ-53 fuel pump and the mating area of ​​the cover. The housing of the GAZ-53 (B9D) fuel pump contains: diaphragm 6 assembled with upper 7 and lower 5 cups, sealed to rod 16 with a copper washer; seal 3 with a steel holder and spring 15 located on it, pump drive lever with axle, bushing 20 and spring 18, manual drive lever 1 with roller assembly 17 and return spring. The axis of the lever 21 of the floating type is sealed in the housing on both sides with threaded plugs. The manual drive roller is sealed in the housing with an annular rubber seal. In the head 8 of the GAZ-53 gasoline pump, which has a suction and discharge cavities, two inlet 9 and one discharge 14 valves are installed by pressing the holder. The valve consists of a holder made of zinc alloy, a rubber valve and a brass plate, pressed by a spring (made of bronze wire) 3. The valve plate is designed to prevent valve distortion in the absence of fuel in the GAZ-53 fuel system. Above the inlet valves in head 8 (see Fig. 3) a mesh filter 10 is installed, made of brass mesh No. 016, rolled into a frame. The head cover 12 is attached to the head 8 with two screws 11. A petrol-resistant rubber sealing gasket 13 is installed between the cover and the head. To prevent hot oil and crankcase gases from entering the diaphragm from the engine, there is an oil- and petrol-resistant rubber seal 5 on the diaphragm rod 16. A steel ring is installed on top of the seal (holder), into which the lower end of the spring 15 rests. Two thrust washers 2 are installed under the forked end of the lever 19 on the diaphragm rod 16: the lower one is steel, and the upper one is textolite. The washers are installed before landing the end of the rod. To control fuel leakage when the diaphragm breaks or its seal is broken at the point of attachment to rod 16, there is a control hole in the GAZ-53 fuel pump housing with a strainer 4 installed in it. Working surface lever 19, made by stamping from a steel sheet, in contact with the eccentric of the engine cam shaft, is subjected to nitrocarburization and hardening to a hardness of 45-58. After long periods of parking, you should use a manual pumping device to fill the carburetor with fuel.

Housing 1 of the GAZ-53 filter is injection molded from zinc alloy. The plastic settling cup is made of phenolic plastic. The filter element 3 is pressed against the housing 1 by a spring 4, resting against the settling bowl 5. Between the filter housing, the settling bowl and the filter element, a combined gasket 2 molded from oil and petrol resistant rubber is installed. On some cars, a fine fuel filter with a ceramic filter element was installed instead of a mesh one. . Unlike a mesh filter, this filter, in addition to the filter element, is distinguished by the use of two separate gaskets between the housing and the settling glass, as well as the housing and the filter element, instead of one (combined) for the mesh filter. The GAZ-53 air filter (Fig. 5) is an inertia-oil type designed to clean the air entering the engine.

Intensively twisted and heat-fixed nylon threads with a diameter of 0.23 - 0.3 mm are used as packing 12 of the filter element. The activity of the oil bath lies in the fact that when the engine load increases, the high-speed air flow captures and delivers oil from the oil bath to the packing, which, splashed throughout its entire volume, actively participates in cleaning the air from dust. The filter is attached to the carburetor 5 with screw 2 and an additional bracket to prevent carburetor breakdowns. Intake pipe of a GAZ-53 car (Fig. 6). The single-tier pipe (with the inlet channels arranged in one row) is cast from aluminum alloy. In addition to its main purpose - supplying the combustible mixture from the carburetor to the engine cylinders - it simultaneously serves as a cover for the cavity of the pushers, as well as a housing for the full-flow oil filter.

The pipe inlet channels are divided into right and left rows. The right row is fed from the right chamber of the GAZ-53 carburetor and connects it to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th cylinders of the engine; the left one connects the left chamber of the carburetor to the 5,6, 7 and 8 cylinders of the engine. To ensure a more uniform distribution of vacuum in the channels of the left and right rows, the jumper separating the rows has three connecting balancing holes: one in the area under the carburetor and the other two in the front and rear parts. To heat the combustible mixture, the intake pipe has a cavity connected to the engine water jacket. The coolant flows through the connecting channels from the engine heads, washes the inlet pipes and, through the outlet pipe in which the thermostat is installed, enters the radiator or, when the thermostat is closed, into the water pump. At the tide of the pipe in the area where the coolant exits into the outlet pipe there is a boss with a conical threaded hole into which a fitting 7 is screwed, connecting the water cavity of the pipe with the GAZ-53 water pump to ensure the bypass of coolant when the thermostat valve is closed. Between the pipe and the heads, as well as the pipe and the engine block, there are four rubber gaskets: two side, front and rear.

Carburetor K-135

The K-135 carburetor (Fig. 7) is an emulsion, two-chamber with a falling flow, with simultaneous opening of the throttle valves and a balanced float chamber. The K135 carburetor of the GAZ-53 engine differs from the K-126 carburetor in its adjustment parameters. Installed with the simultaneous introduction of cylinder heads with screw inlet ports onto the engine. Without changing the adjustment parameters, the use of the K-135 carburetor on engines with conventional, previously produced cylinder heads is unacceptable.

In the cover of the float chamber of the K135 (GAZ-53) carburetor there is an air damper 6 with two automatic valves. The air damper drive is connected to the throttle valve axis by a system of levers and rods, which ensure that, when starting a cold engine, the valves are opened to the angle necessary to maintain the starting speed of the engine crankshaft. This system consists of lever 5 (Fig. 8) of the air damper drive, which with one arm acts on the lever of the air damper axis 6, and with the other on the lever of the accelerator pump drive, connected to the throttle valve lever by rod 2.

1 - throttle lever; 2 - traction; 3 - adjustment bar; 4 - accelerator pump drive lever; 5 - air damper drive lever, 6 - air damper axis The main systems of the K135 carburetor operate on the principle of pneumatic (air) braking of gasoline. The economizer system works without braking like a simple carburetor. An idle system and a main metering system are located in each carburetor chamber. The accelerator pump and cold engine starting system are common to both carburetor chambers. The economizer has a common economizer valve for both chambers and separate nozzles connected to each chamber. The idle system of each chamber of the K135 carburetor consists of a fuel jet 5 (see Fig. 7), an air jet 10 and two holes in the mixing chamber: upper and lower. The lower hole is equipped with a screw 30 to regulate the composition of the combustible mixture. The idle screw is sealed with a rubber ring to prevent air leaks. There is a knurling on the screw head to allow installation of a screw rotation limiter, ensuring the consistency of the adjusted qualitative composition of the mixture. Emulsification of gasoline is ensured by an air jet 10. The main dosing system consists of a large and small 4 diffusers, an emulsion tube 28, a main fuel jet 27 and an air jet 3. The idle system and the main metering system ensure the required gasoline consumption in all main engine operating modes. The K135 carburetor economizer includes parts both common to both chambers and separate to each chamber. The first includes the drive mechanism and the economizer valve 36 with a nozzle, and the second includes the nozzles located in the nozzle block (one for each chamber). Acceleration pump 1 with a mechanical drive consists of a piston, a drive mechanism, 34 return and 9 discharge valves and 7 nozzles in the block. The nozzles are located in each carburetor chamber and combined with jets and economizer nozzles in separate block. The accelerator pump and economizer are driven jointly. It is carried out from the axis of 22 throttle valves. The cold start system of the GAZ-53 engine consists of an air damper 6 with two automatic valves and a system of levers connecting the air and throttle dampers. Operation of the GAZ-53 carburetor when starting a cold engine. When starting a cold engine, the fuel mixture must be enriched. This is achieved by covering the air damper 6 (see Fig. 7) of the carburetor, which creates a significant vacuum at the nozzles of the main metering systems in small diffusers and at the outlet openings of the idle system in the mixing chamber. Under the influence of vacuum, gasoline from the float chamber of the K135 carburetor (GAZ-53) through the main fuel jets 27 flows to the emulsion tube 28 and idle jets 5. Through the air jets 3 of the main dosing system and the holes in the emulsion tubes 28, as well as through the air jets 10 of the idle system, air enters the channels, which, when mixed with gasoline, forms an emulsion. The emulsion, through the nozzles of small diffusers 4 and the outlets of the idle systems, enters the mixing chambers of the carburetor and then into the engine intake pipe. Over-enrichment of the combustible mixture after starting the engine with the air damper 6 closed is prevented by automatic air valves of the K-135 (GAZ-53) carburetor, which, when opening, let in additional air and lean the mixture to the required limits. Further leaning of the mixture is achieved by opening the air damper 6 from the driver's seat. When the air damper 6 is completely closed, the throttle valves 29 automatically open slightly at an angle of 12°. Operation of the GAZ-53 carburetor at low crankshaft speed during engine idle mode. At low frequency rotation of the engine crankshaft in idle mode, the throttle valves 29 (see Fig. 7) are slightly open at an angle of 1-2°, and the air damper 6 is fully open. The vacuum behind the throttle valves reaches 61.5-64.1 kPa. This vacuum is transmitted through the holes covered by the adjusting screws 30 of the idle system through channels to the fuel jets 5 of the idle system. Under the influence of vacuum, gasoline from the float chamber of the K-135 (GAZ-53) carburetor, passing the main jets 27, enters the mixing chamber through the fuel jets 5 of the idle system, along the way mixing with air entering through the air jets 10 of the idle system. At low engine speeds, air also enters through the upper transition holes of the idle system. Coming out of the idle holes, the emulsion is additionally sprayed into the mixing chamber by air passing at high speed through a narrow gap formed by the wall of the mixing chamber and the throttle valves 29. The combustible mixture thus obtained enters the engine intake pipe. In this mode, the vacuum at the nozzles of the main dosing system in small diffusers 4 is insignificant, so the main dosing systems do not work. Operation of the K-135 (GAZ-53) carburetor at partial loads. At low loads, the required mixture composition is provided only by the idle system, and at partial loads - by the joint operation of the main metering systems and the idle system. Operation of the K-135 (GAZ-53) carburetor at full engine load. To obtain maximum engine power, the throttle valves 29 (see Fig. 7) of the carburetor must be opened completely. 5 - 7° before the throttle valves are fully opened, the economizer valve 36 opens and the additional amount of gasoline entering through the system enriches the fuel mixture to the limits that ensure maximum power. The economizer system operates on the principle of a basic carburetor. During operation, gasoline flows from the float chamber to the power nozzle located in the economizer valve body 36, and then to a separately located nozzle block having nozzles in addition to the nozzle of the main dosing system. A separate output of the economizer of the GAZ-53 carburetor allows for timely (at approximately 1500 min-1 of the engine crankshaft with the throttle valves fully open) entry into operation of this system, which is necessary for the correct flow of external speed characteristics engine. The main dosing system also continues to operate at this time. Through the idle system in mode full loads The engine receives a very small amount of gasoline. When accelerating a car, the operation of the K-135 (GAZ-53) carburetor is ensured by injecting an additional portion of gasoline into the air flow. Injection is carried out by an accelerator pump through nozzles 7 (see Fig. 7). When the throttle valves 29 are sharply opened, the piston of the accelerator pump 1 moves down. Under gasoline pressure, check valve 34 closes, and the discharge valve opens and an additional amount of gasoline is injected into the air flow through nozzles 7. When the throttle valves of the GAZ-53 carburetor are slowly opened, gasoline has time to flow from the sub-piston cavity into the float chamber through the gap between the piston and the walls of the accelerator pump cylinder. Only a small part of the gasoline, when opening the injection valve 9, enters the air flow. Valve 9 and air passing through the holes to relieve vacuum from the nozzle prevent gasoline from suction through the accelerator pump system when the engine is running at a high engine speed in a constant mode. The remaining systems of the K-135 (GAZ-53) carburetor operate as usual. The GAZ-53 carburetor (Fig. 9) is controlled by a pedal 8 with a rubber pad 1, the bracket 5 of which is fixed to the cabin floor, and by the drive lever traction system. Additionally, there is a rod 31 for manual control of the throttle valves and a rod 16 for manual control of the air damper.

The engine should not stall. If the engine stalls, you need to slightly increase the rotation speed by screwing in the stop screw, and then check again for correct adjustment. The K-135 carburetor is adjusted for the moment the economizer is turned on with the float chamber cover and gasket removed. By pressing your finger, bar 1 (Fig. 10) is set so that the distance between it and the plane of the float chamber is in the range of 14.8 - 15.2 mm. In this case, using the adjusting rod nut 2, the gap between the end of the nut 2 and the bar 1 is set within the range of 2.8 - 3.2 mm. After adjustment, the nut should be tightened. It is necessary to ensure that the throttle and air dampers turn completely freely and tightly cover their channels without any jamming. Allowed gaps between housings and dampers are no more than 0.06 mm for throttle dampers and 0.2 mm for air dampers. Permissible gaps are checked with feeler gauges. To check the operation of the accelerator pump, measure its performance, which should be at least 12 cm3 per 10 full piston strokes. The rolling rate should be 20 full swings/min. The accelerator pump should operate smoothly and without jamming. In this case, pay attention to the sensitivity of the accelerator pump. This means that the supply of fuel through the accelerator pump nozzle must begin simultaneously with the start of the throttle valves. The permissible delay is no more than 5°. If the delay is greater, you should select a new piston for the accelerator pump well or replace the rubber seal of the piston due to their wear. If the pump performance is less than the specified value, this means that the valves (return or discharge) are not tight or the sprayer is clogged. This damage can be eliminated by washing and purging the nozzle and valve seats, as well as wiping them (if necessary).

Fig. 10. Adjusting the GAZ-53 carburetor for the moment when the economizer valve is turned on

When adjusting the K-135 carburetor to the required opening angle of the throttle valves with the air damper completely closed, proceed as follows (see Fig. 8). Having loosened the fastening of the movable bar 3, located on the lever 4 of the accelerator pump drive, use the lever 5 to completely close the carburetor air damper. Next, use lever 1 to open the throttle valves slightly so that the gap between the wall of the mixing chamber and the edge of the valve is 1.2 mm (this gap corresponds to the opening angle of the valves equal to 12°), and move the movable bar 3 until it rests against the protrusion lever, after which it is secured. Having opened and closed the air damper again, check the correct adjustment of the K-135 carburetor by measuring the above gap. The low crankshaft rotation speed during engine idle mode in the K-135 carburetor is regulated using two mixture quality screws 2 (one for each chamber) and one thrust screw 1 of the throttle valves (mixture quantity screw).

Moreover, when tightening each screw 2, the mixture becomes leaner, and when unscrewing, it becomes richer. The mixture quantity adjusting screw regulates the minimum throttle opening at which the engine runs stably without load.

Carburetor repair and adjustment

Hello dear friends! Today we will talk to you about the K-135 carburetor, which is installed on Gas trucks, with gasoline engine ZmZ-511 and modifications. The carburetor - as practice shows, is an extremely important part of the entire fuel system in engines that use gasoline as fuel. It is the carburetor that creates the fuel mixture that enters directly into the combustion chambers.

Therefore, if the carburetor has not been adjusted correctly, fuel entering the engine fuel mixture will cause significant damage to it and lead to excessive fuel consumption. Modern devices, for example, injectors, can automatically regulate the quality of the supplied fuel, however, adjusting the GAZ 3307 carburetor still remains a hot topic for most people.

Gas brand trucks are equipped with K-135 carburetors. All carburetors from the time the K-135 was created were created using a single system. The carburetor consists of two chambers and throttle valves connected to them, one per chamber. The chambers are complemented by screws; by turning them, you can adjust the quality of the fuel mixture formed in the carburetor. In carburetors, the fuel mixture is supplied in such a way that the engine is not subject to filling with gasoline, and it is easier to start it in difficult conditions, such as cold weather, for example, an accelerator system.

Adjusting the GAZ 3307 K-135 carburetor is a relatively simple process, but you can only start it if you have at least a basic understanding of the design and principles of carburetor adjustment. For example, there is no point in restricting the fuel supply to the carburetor without lowering the air supply level. Yes, in general there is no need to limit the supply of fuel and air, since, as practice shows, this does not lead to anything good. You may save some money, but this will lead to premature wear engine, resulting in expensive repairs, so there is no need to limit anything, the manufacturer has set the standard, let everything remain that way.

Carburetor adjustment.

Let's start cleaning and adjusting the K-135 carburetor. I repeat, if you do not have at least a basic understanding of the design and principles of carburetor adjustment, it is better not to bother, but if you are sure that you can handle it, then we will continue. Although if you follow the advice, then I think everything will work out for you.

First of all, of course, you need to remove the carburetor and completely disassemble it. When disassembling, it is easy to carry dirt inside the carburetor or break worn-in connections or seals. External washing done with a brush using any liquid that dissolves oily deposits. This can be gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, their analogues, or special washing liquids dissolved in water. After washing, you can blow air over the carburetor, or simply blot it lightly with a clean cloth to dry the surface. The need for this operation is small, and it is not necessary to wash surfaces just for the sake of shine. To flush the internal cavities of the carburetor, you will need to at least remove the float chamber cover.

Removing the float chamber cover must begin by disconnecting the economizer drive rod and accelerator pump. To do this, you need to unpin it and remove it from the hole in the lever. top end thrust 2 (see Fig. 1). Then you should unscrew the seven screws securing the float chamber cover and remove the cover without damaging the gasket. To make the cover easier to remove, press the air damper lever with your finger. Move the cover to the side and only then turn it over the table so that the seven screws fall out. Evaluate the quality of the gasket. There should be a clear imprint of the body on it. Under no circumstances should you place the carburetor cover on the table with the float down!

1 - throttle lever; 2 - traction; 3 - adjustment bar; 4 - accelerator pump drive lever; 5 - air damper drive lever; 6-axis air damper.

Cleaning the float chamber is carried out to remove sediment that forms at its bottom. With the cover removed, you need to remove the bar with the accelerator pump piston and economizer drive and remove the spring from the guide.

Next, clean the float chamber from sediment and rinse with gasoline. It is better not to scrape off dirt that has already become embedded and stuck to the walls; it does not pose a danger. The likelihood of clogging of channels or jets with improper cleaning is much greater than with normal use.

The source of debris in the float chamber is, of course, gasoline itself. The reason for the inclusion of debris with gasoline is clogged fuel filters. Check the condition of all filters, replace and clean if necessary. In addition to the fine filter, which is installed on the engine and has a mesh or paper filter element inside, there is another one on the carburetor itself. It is located under the plug near the gasoline supply fitting on the carburetor cover. Another one, a sediment filter, stands near the gas tank and is attached to the frame; it also needs to be washed and cleaned.

After you are done with cleaning, you will need to remove all the jets. It’s better to try not to confuse the jets, because instead of one jet you won’t be able to screw in another, but still put it back where you removed it.

  1. Main fuel jets.
  2. The main air jets, under them in the wells there are emulsion tubes.
  3. Econostat valve.
  4. Idle fuel jets.
  5. Idle air jets. Unscrew by touch with a slotted screwdriver after the fuel has been removed.

The most important thing: after removing all the jets, do not forget to get the needle valve that is located in the channel of the accelerator pump, otherwise there is a high probability of losing it. (Some don't even know about its existence). To do this, carefully turn the carburetor over the table and the valve will fall out. It is made of the same material as the jets, that is, brass. In the photo, with a comment, you can see where it is installed.

After removing the jets, you need to flush all the channels. For this purpose, there are special cans of liquid for flushing the carburetor. They are sold in auto parts stores, so it is not difficult to buy. You need to spray the liquid into all carburetor channels with this can and leave it for a while (there are instructions on the can). After some time, you need to blow out all the carburetor channels with compressed air. You need to blow carefully so that any remaining liquid does not get into your eyes. After blowing everything needs to be wiped with a dry cloth and dried. Also, do not forget to clean and bleed all jets. Just do not clean the jets with metal wire under any circumstances.

Also check the condition of the accelerator pump, pay attention to the rubber seal on the piston and the installation of the piston in the housing. The cuff must, firstly, seal the injection cavity and, secondly, move easily along the walls. To do this, there should be no large marks (folds) on its working edge and it should not swell in gasoline. Otherwise, friction against the walls may become so difficult that the piston may not move at all. When you press the pedal, you act through the rod on the bar that carries the piston, the bar moves down, compressing the spring, and the piston remains in place. And fuel injection will not happen.

Now everything needs to be put back together in reverse order. After assembly, you will need to correctly set the fuel level in the float chamber. In old-style carburetors, it’s convenient to have a window; you set exactly half of the window and that’s it. The level is adjusted by bending or bending the special tendril of the float. But in the new model carburetors there is no window, you will have to use some tools. (see Fig. 2.) And once again I want to say, do not under any circumstances try to save money by reducing the fuel level in the float chamber, this will not lead to anything good. But expensive repairs will be inevitable.

Rice. 2. Scheme for checking the fuel level in the float chamber:

1 - fitting; 2 - rubber tube; 3 - glass tube.

Idle speed adjustment.

The minimum engine speed at which it operates most stably is adjusted using a screw that changes the composition of the combustible mixture, as well as a thrust screw that limits the extreme position of the damper. (See Fig. 3.) Idle speed is adjusted with the engine warmed up to operating temperature (80°C). In addition, all parts of the ignition system must be in good condition, and the clearances must comply with the passport data.

First, you need to tighten the two screws for adjusting the quality of the mixture completely, and then turn them out 2.5-3 turns. Start the engine and use the thrust screw to set the average crankshaft speed. After this, using quality screws, it is necessary to increase the rotation speed to 600 rpm. If the carburetor is adjusted correctly, then when the throttle is opened sharply, the engine should not stall, there should be no dips and should quickly pick up maximum speed.

1- quantity screw; 2- quality screws; 3- safety caps.

I think this is where I can end the article. If suddenly you haven’t found something, or you simply don’t have time to search, then I recommend reading the articles in the “GAS Repair” categories. I am sure you will find the answer to your question, and if not, write in the comments the question you are interested in, I will definitely answer.

» GAZ 53 engine » Carburetor K-126 and K-135 of the GAZ-53 car: device and diagram

The two-chamber, emulsion carburetor K-126 (K-135) of the GAZ-53 car with a balanced float chamber and simultaneous opening of the throttle valves serves to prepare a combustible mixture of both air and fuel. The K-135 model differs from the K-126 carburetor only in adjustment parameters and began to be installed on the car after the introduction of cylinder heads with screw inlet ports to the engine. It is not allowed to use the K-135 carburetor on early engines without changing the adjustment parameters.

From each chamber of the carburetor, the combustible mixture flows independently of each other through the inlet pipe to the corresponding bank of cylinders: the right chamber of the carburetor supplies the combustible mixture to cylinders 1, 2, 3 and 4, and the left chamber supplies the combustible mixture to cylinders 5, 6, 7 and 8.

Carburetor design

The float chamber cover contains an air damper equipped with two automatic valves. The air damper drive mechanism is connected to the throttle valve axis using systems of rods and levers, which, when starting a cold engine, open the dampers to the angle required to ensure the optimal starting speed of the engine crankshaft. This system consists of an air damper drive lever, which acts with one shoulder on the damper axis lever, and with the other shoulder on the accelerator pump drive lever, which is connected to the throttle valve lever using a rod.

The main components of the carburetor operate on the principle of air (pneumatic) braking of gasoline. The economizer works without braking as a simple carburetor. The main metering system and the idle system are present in each carburetor chamber.

The cold engine starting system and the accelerator pump are common to both chambers of the carburetor. The economizer has a common economizer valve for two chambers and different nozzles that have an outlet into each chamber.

The idle system of both chambers of the carburetor consists of fuel and air jets, and also has two holes in the mixing chamber: lower and upper. The lower hole is equipped with a screw designed to adjust the composition of the combustible mixture. To prevent air from being sucked into the idle screw, a rubber O-ring is used. The screw head is equipped with knurling to allow installation of a screw rotation limiter, which ensures regular quality of the combustible mixture composition. The air jet ensures emulsification of gasoline.

Adjusting the opening angle of the throttle valves with the air damper closed (starting a cold engine): 1 - throttle valve lever; 2 - traction; 3 - adjustment bar; 4 - accelerator pump drive lever; 5 - air damper drive lever; 6 - air damper axis.

The main dosing system consists of a small and large diffuser, main air and fuel jets and an emulsion tube. The main dosing system and the idle system provide the necessary fuel consumption for the GAZ-53 car in all main engine operating modes. The economizer includes parts both common to both chambers and individual to each. The first includes an economizer valve with a jet and a drive mechanism, and the second includes jets located in the nozzle block (one per chamber).

Carburetor accelerator pump K-126

The accelerator pump, equipped with a mechanical drive, consists of a drive mechanism, a piston, discharge and check valves and nozzles in a block. The nozzles are located in each carburetor chamber and are combined with the nozzles and economizer jets into a separate block. The accelerator pump and economizer have a joint drive, carried out from the axis of the throttle valves.

The cold starting system includes a choke with a lever system and two automatic valves connecting the throttle and choke.

Carburetor operation when starting a cold engine

When starting a cold engine, it is necessary that the combustible mixture be enriched and this is achieved by closing the carburetor air damper, which creates a serious vacuum at the nozzles of the main metering systems in small diffusers and at the outlets of the idle system in the mixing chamber. Under the influence of vacuum, gasoline from the float chamber is supplied through the main fuel jets to the emulsion tube and idle jets. Air enters the channels through holes in the emulsion tubes, air jets of the idle system and through the air jets of the main metering system, simultaneously mixing with air, thereby forming an emulsion. The emulsion is fed through the outlets of the idle systems and the sprays of small diffusers into the mixing chambers of the carburetor and then into the engine intake pipe.

To prevent over-enrichment of the combustible mixture after the engine starts, automatic air valves are used, which, when opened, supply additional air, thereby depleting the combustible mixture to the required level. Subsequent leaning of the mixture is carried out by opening the air damper from the driver's cabin. When the air damper is completely closed, the throttle valves are automatically opened at an angle of 12º.

Carburetor operation at low crankshaft speed during engine idle mode

At low crankshaft speeds in idle mode, the throttle valves are slightly open at an angle of 1-2º, while the air damper is completely open. The vacuum behind the throttle valves increases to 61.5-64.1 kPa. This vacuum, passing through the holes covered by the idle system and adjusting screws, is supplied through channels to the fuel jets of the idle system. Under the influence of vacuum, gasoline from the float chamber, bypassing the main jets, is supplied through the fuel jets of the idle system into the mixing chamber, simultaneously mixing with air, which enters through the air jets of the idle system. In low crankshaft speed mode, air is also supplied through the upper transition holes of the idle system.

Coming out of the idle holes, the emulsion is further atomized by air in the mixing chamber, which passes at high speed through a narrow gap created by the throttle valves and the wall of the mixing chamber. The combustible mixture created in this way is supplied to the engine intake pipe. In this mode, the vacuum at the nozzles of the main dosing system in small diffusers is not serious, so the main dosing systems do not function.

Carburetor operation at partial engine loads

At light loads on the engine, the composition of the combustible mixture is formed only with the help of the idle system, and at partial loads - by joint efforts with the idle system and the main metering systems.

Operation of the K-126 carburetor at full engine load

To obtain maximum engine power, the carburetor throttle valves must be fully open. 5-7º before the throttle valves are fully opened, the economizer valve opens and the combustible mixture is enriched with an additional amount of gasoline supplied through the system. The economizer works on the principle of a simple carburetor.

During operation, gasoline is supplied from the float chamber to the power nozzle located in the economizer valve body, and then to a separately located nozzle block with nozzles, bypassing the nozzle of the main dosing system.

A separate output of the economizer ensures timely entry into operation of this system, which is necessary for stable operation of the external speed characteristics of the engine. The main dosing system also continues to operate. At full load, a small amount of fuel is supplied to the engine through the idle system.

During acceleration of the GAZ-53, the carburetor operates by injecting additional fuel into the air flow. Injection is carried out by an accelerator pump using nozzles. When the throttle valves are opened sharply, the accelerator pump piston tends downwards. Check valve it closes under the pressure of gasoline, and the injection valve opens and an additional portion of gasoline is injected into the air flow through nozzles.

When the throttle valves open slowly, fuel has time to flow from the sub-piston cavity into the float chamber through the gap between the walls of the accelerator pump cylinder and the piston. Only a small part of the fuel, when opening the discharge valve, mixes with the air flow.

The valve and the air passing through the holes to relieve vacuum from the nozzle block the suction of gasoline through the accelerator pump system while the engine is running at high crankshaft speeds.

Carburetor control (gas pedal)

The carburetor is controlled by a pedal equipped with a rubber pad, the mount of which is installed on the cabin floor, as well as by a system of levers and drive levers. Additionally, a manual control rod for the throttle valves and a manual air damper control rod are provided.

In any car, every detail is important and fulfills its intended role. The carburetor also has such functions. Being a device for dosing fuel and preparing a combustible mixture, it prepares the fuel in the cylinders for more complete combustion. All preparation usually consists of spraying liquid fuel into small drops and evaporating, mixing with air.

In GAZ-53 cars ZMZ engines-53 carburetor K-126 and K-135 are installed. If you compare the same parts that were once equipped with the ZIL-130 and Moskvich-412, you can see that they are very similar. The difference here is obvious in the dimensions and possibilities of its adjustment. This is precisely what determines some of the features that carburetors for the GAZ-53 have.

Types of carburetors K-126

Each carburetor has systems that help it function properly under certain conditions. There are also additions that help them function properly (for example, these include solenoids designed to cut off the fuel supply or pressure surge absorbers). It is not recommended to remove such components, as this will have a noticeable effect on engine operation.

So, any carburetor for GAZ-53 will consist of the following parts:

  • Float chamber;
  • Air damper;
  • Idle system;
  • Acceleration pump;
  • Transition system;
  • Main carburetor metering system;
  • Economizer.

K-126 carburetor diagram

System operation sequences

The work of each of the above components is a guarantee of excellent performance and the carburetor itself. For example, a float system maintains a constant fuel level in the float chamber. The air damper allows a cold engine to start by enriching the air-fuel mixture. The idle speed system ensures that the engine is getting the fuel it needs to keep the engine running at low revs when the dosing system is not yet operating. But the accelerator pump is designed to inject additional fuel to prevent stalling and interruptions in the engine during acceleration of the car (usually this happens when the throttle is opened sharply).

Next, it’s up to the transitional system. It is needed to enable the transition mode between idle and operation of the main dosing system. But the latter precisely forms the necessary gas-air fog, that is, the supply of fuel to the engine while the car is moving at average speeds.

And finally, when the engine is running under load, a richer air-fuel mixture is required than in normal operation. It is the economizer system that will provide additional fuel.

Design features of the K-126 model

The carburetor of the K-126 model of the GAZ-53 is a two-chamber part with a descending flow of the combustible mixture. It also has a mechanically driven economizer with an accelerator pump.

Its body consists of an upper, middle and lower part, each of which is connected with screws, and fuel will flow into the float chamber through a strainer. As a starting device, the K-126 carburetor has an air damper - it has an air valve, which is designed to prevent the formation of an enriched mixture at the moment when the engine starts. And each of the two cameras has its own autonomous idle system.

GAZ-53 carburetor size

How can you check the fuel level?

The most important condition for stable operation of the carburetor float is its free movement on the axis, and at the same time the tightness of the housing is important. Please note that the valve needle must move absolutely freely, without any jamming. And in those cases when they occur, the problem turns out to be a violation of the integrity of the float body - in this case, adjusting the fuel level in the float chamber will be almost impossible.

How to check the tightness of the float? This can be done by opening the carburetor, pulling out the float and immersing it in hot water. If air bubbles appear on the surface, this will indicate damage. To eliminate the malfunction, a puncture is made in this place and simply remove the remaining water and fuel from the float. After this, all that remains is to dry and solder the hole. Such adjustment of the float operation is impossible without taking into account its weight, which should not exceed 14 g (if it turns out to be more, you need to remove excess solder).

Adjusting the GAZ-53 carburetor

Device

The idle system cannot provide the required fuel consumption in all engine operating modes, so in addition to it, a main metering system is installed on the carburetor, which consists of diffusers: large and small, fuel and air jets and an emulsified tube.

Main dosing system

The basis of the carburetor is the main metering system (abbreviated as GDS). It ensures a constant composition of the vehicle and does not allow it to become lean or rich at medium speeds of the internal combustion engine (ICE). Each chamber in the system is equipped with one fuel and one air jet.

Idle system

The idle system is designed to ensure stable operation of the engine at idle speed of the internal combustion engine. The carburetor throttle valve should always be slightly open, and the gasoline mixture at idle speed (idle) enters the intake tract, bypassing the GDS. The position of the throttle axis is set by the quantity screw, and the quality screws (one for each chamber) allow you to enrich or lean the mixture at idle. The fuel consumption of the vehicle largely depends on the adjustment.

How to Correctly Adjust the Carburetor Gas 53

Adjusting the GAZ-53 carburetor

The GAZ 53 carburetor has a two-chamber system, each of which operates on 4 cylinders. The throttle valve is equipped with a drive for both chambers at once, so fuel is dosed synchronously to all cylinders. To ensure rational fuel consumption at different engine modes, the carburetor is equipped with several systems for regulating the composition of the fuel mixture (FM).

This is what the carburetor installed on a GAZ 53 looks like

The carburetor was originally brand K126B, and its subsequent modification was K135 (K135M). Fundamentally, the models are almost no different, only the control scheme of the device has changed, and on the latest releases a convenient viewing window was removed from the float chamber. Now it has become impossible to see the gasoline level.

Device

K-135 is emulsified, with two chambers and a falling flow.

The two chambers are independent of each other; through them, the combustible mixture is supplied to the cylinders through the intake pipe. One chamber serves cylinders 1 to 4, and the other serves all the others.

The air damper is located inside the float chamber and is equipped with two automatic valves. The main systems used in the carburetor operate on the principle of air braking of gasoline, except for the economizer.

In addition, each chamber has its own idle system, main dosing system and sprayers. The two carburetor chambers have in common only a cold engine starting system, an accelerator pump, partly an economizer, which has one valve for two chambers, and a drive mechanism. The jets located in the nozzle block and related to the economizer are installed separately on them.

Each idle system includes fuel and air jets, and two holes in the mixing chamber. A screw with a rubber ring is installed on the bottom hole. The screw is designed to regulate the composition of the combustible mixture. And the rubber seal prevents air from penetrating through the screw hole.

The air jet, in turn, plays the role of emulsifying gasoline.

The idle system cannot provide the required fuel consumption in all engine operating modes, so in addition to it, a main system is installed on the carburetor dosing system, which consists of diffusers: large and small, fuel and air jets and an emulsified tube.

Main dosing system

The basis of the carburetor is the main dosing system(abbreviated as GDS). It ensures a constant composition of the vehicle and does not allow it to become lean or rich at medium speeds of the internal combustion engine (ICE). Each chamber in the system is equipped with one fuel and one air jet.

System idle move

System idle move designed to ensure stable operation of the engine at idle speed of the internal combustion engine. The carburetor throttle valve should always be slightly open, and the gasoline mixture at idle speed (idle) enters the intake tract, bypassing the GDS. The position of the throttle axis is set by the quantity screw, and the quality screws (one for each chamber) allow you to enrich or lean the mixture at idle. The fuel consumption of the vehicle largely depends on the adjustment.

Float chamber

The float chamber is located in the main body and maintains the level of gasoline in the carburetor necessary for the normal operation of the engine power system. The main elements in it are a float and a locking mechanism, consisting of a needle with a membrane and a valve seat.

Economizer

About the K-135 carburetor (Review about the possible harm of acetone)

The video may be especially interesting to all owners of Cars with carburetor K-135. And for the rest, how.

GAZ-66. IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT. V-shaped engine.

Nail Poroshin will tell you and show once again that the process of finding a spot on the XX is applicable to any carburetor.

The economizer system enriches the vehicle at high engine speeds with increasing load. The economizer has a valve that, when the throttle valves are opened to maximum, releases a portion of additional fuel through the channels, bypassing the GDS.

Acceleration pump

In the K126 (K135) carburetor, the accelerator is a piston with a cuff that operates in a cylindrical channel. At the moment of sharp pressing of the accelerator (gas) pedal, the throttle valve drive, mechanically connected to the accelerator system, causes the piston to quickly move along the channel.

Diagram of the K126 carburetor with the names of all elements

The system prevents the crankshaft from exceeding a certain number of revolutions due to incomplete opening of the throttle valve. The operation is based on pneumatics; due to the vacuum, the diaphragm in the pneumatic valve of the device moves, turning the throttle valve axis mechanically connected to the limiter assembly.

Starting system

The starting system ensures stable operation of a cold engine. The system consists of pneumatic valves located in the air damper and a system of levers that connect the throttle and air damper. When the choke cable is pulled, the air damper closes, the rods pull the throttle along with them and open it slightly.

When starting a cold engine, the 53 gas valves in the air damper open under the influence of vacuum and add air to the carburetor, preventing the engine from stalling with a mixture that is too rich.

Carburetor malfunctions

There can be many different malfunctions in the carburetor of a GAZ 53 car, but all of them are associated with increased fuel consumption, regardless of whether the mixture enters the cylinders rich or lean. In addition to increased fuel consumption, the following symptoms of malfunctions are characteristic:

  • There is black smoke coming from the exhaust pipe. It is especially noticeable with a sharp increase in engine speed. In this case, shots may be fired into the silencer;
  • The engine is unstable at idle and may also stall at idle;
  • The engine does not develop speed, chokes, there are pops in the intake manifold;
  • With sharp acceleration, a failure occurs in the operation of the internal combustion engine;
  • Sluggish acceleration of the car, but at high speeds the car drives normally;
  • Lack of power, engine does not develop speed;
  • Jerks when moving, especially noticeable when accelerating.

Carburetor repair for GAZ 53 truck


Repairing a carburetor first of all involves flushing and purging all systems. To do this, the carburetor is removed and disassembled to clean all the jets.

Adjustment

The K126B carburetor (also the K135 carburetor) has several adjustments:

  • idle move;
  • gasoline level in the float chamber;
  • piston stroke of the accelerator pump;
  • moment when the economizer system is turned on.

Only one adjustment is made without disassembling the carburetor itself - this is idling the engine. This procedure is performed most often; any driver can perform it. It is better to entrust the remaining adjustments to specialists, but there are often craftsmen who make any adjustments with their own hands.
For proper adjustment, the XX engine must be technically sound, all cylinders must work without interruption.

Idle speed adjustment:

  • with the engine turned off, tighten the quality screws of both chambers until the end, then unscrew each approximately 3 turns;
  • start the engine and warm it up to operating condition;
  • quantity screw set the number of revolutions XX to approximately 600. There is no tachometer in the GAZ 53 car, so the revolutions are set by ear - they should not be too low or high;
  • we tighten one of the screws for quality and torque until interruptions in the operation of the internal combustion engine appear, then we move the screw back approximately one-eighth of a turn (until stable operation of the engine);
  • We do the same with the second camera;
  • quantity screw set the required speed;
  • If necessary, use the quality screw to increase the speed if the engine stalls when you release the gas pedal.

Hi all! I have such a Gazonovsky carb, visually in the photo, I don’t know the number on the carb itself, level 2 inscriptions, and on the back it was made in Russia. Here’s a problem that seems like a small thing, but at the same time it’s not a small thing. I assembled the motor and now it’s time to tune the motor. I checked the spark plugs, the distributor cap and new wires, the ignition is set. At idle it seems to work cleanly, but you press the gas pedal and it either stalls or revs up a couple of times, it de-accelerates, it doesn’t develop maximum speed, it can’t start normally, the car doesn’t drive, in general it’s a nightmare, I cleaned the carb, you could say by slightly partial disassembling, that is, I removed the top cover, the level is normal , I blew out the jets, it seems to be sulking everywhere. Although before the repair there was no sneezing or coughing, it seemed to be going smoothly. Gasoline seems to be normal from GAZPROM. In general, help, tell us what to clean in it, what else can be turned and where not to go.

P.S. The issue with the carburetor was resolved, cured by complete disassembly, cleaning with a van + compressor and tuning according to the manual.

Adjusting the GAZ-53 carburetor

The GAZ 53 carburetor has a two-chamber system, each of which operates on 4 cylinders. The throttle valve is equipped with a drive for both chambers at once, so fuel is dosed synchronously to all cylinders. To ensure rational fuel consumption at different engine modes, the carburetor is equipped with several systems for regulating the composition of the fuel mixture (FM).

This is what the carburetor installed on a GAZ 53 looks like

The carburetor was originally brand K126B, and its subsequent modification was K135 (K135M). Fundamentally, the models are almost no different, only the control scheme of the device has changed, and on the latest releases a convenient viewing window was removed from the float chamber. Now it has become impossible to see the gasoline level.

Device

K-135 is emulsified, with two chambers and a falling flow.

Similar news

The two chambers are independent of each other; through them, the combustible mixture is supplied to the cylinders through the intake pipe. One chamber serves cylinders 1 to 4, and the other serves all the others.

The air damper is located inside the float chamber and is equipped with two automatic valves. The main systems used in the carburetor operate on the principle of air braking of gasoline, except for the economizer.

In addition, each chamber has its own idle system, main dosing system and sprayers. The two carburetor chambers have in common only a cold engine starting system, an accelerator pump, partly an economizer, which has one valve for two chambers, and a drive mechanism. The jets located in the nozzle block and related to the economizer are installed separately on them.

Each idle system includes fuel and air jets, and two holes in the mixing chamber. A screw with a rubber ring is installed on the bottom hole. The screw is designed to regulate the composition of the combustible mixture. And the rubber seal prevents air from penetrating through the screw hole.

The air jet, in turn, plays the role of emulsifying gasoline.

The idle system cannot provide the required fuel consumption in all engine operating modes, so in addition to it, a main system is installed on the carburetor dosing system, which consists of diffusers: large and small, fuel and air jets and an emulsified tube.

Main dosing system

The basis of the carburetor is the main dosing system(abbreviated as GDS). It ensures a constant composition of the vehicle and does not allow it to become lean or rich at medium speeds of the internal combustion engine (ICE). Each chamber in the system is equipped with one fuel and one air jet.

System idle move

System idle move designed to ensure stable operation of the engine at idle speed of the internal combustion engine. The carburetor throttle valve should always be slightly open, and the gasoline mixture at idle speed (idle) enters the intake tract, bypassing the GDS. The position of the throttle axis is set by the quantity screw, and the quality screws (one for each chamber) allow you to enrich or lean the mixture at idle. The fuel consumption of the vehicle largely depends on the adjustment.

Float chamber

The float chamber is located in the main body and maintains the level of gasoline in the carburetor necessary for the normal operation of the engine power system. The main elements in it are a float and a locking mechanism, consisting of a needle with a membrane and a valve seat.

Economizer

The video may be especially interesting to all owners of Cars with carburetor K-135. And for the rest, how.

GAZ-66. IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT. V-shaped engine.

Nail Poroshin will tell you and show once again that the process of finding a spot on the XX is applicable to any carburetor.

The economizer system enriches the vehicle at high engine speeds with increasing load. The economizer has a valve that, when the throttle valves are opened to maximum, releases a portion of additional fuel through the channels, bypassing the GDS.

Acceleration pump

In the K126 (K135) carburetor, the accelerator is a piston with a cuff that operates in a cylindrical channel. At the moment of sharp pressing of the accelerator (gas) pedal, the throttle valve drive, mechanically connected to the accelerator system, causes the piston to quickly move along the channel.

Diagram of the K126 carburetor with the names of all elements

Speed ​​limiter

The system prevents the crankshaft from exceeding a certain number of revolutions due to incomplete opening of the throttle valve. The operation is based on pneumatics; due to the vacuum, the diaphragm in the pneumatic valve of the device moves, turning the throttle valve axis mechanically connected to the limiter assembly.

Starting system

The starting system ensures stable operation of a cold engine. The system consists of pneumatic valves located in the air damper and a system of levers that connect the throttle and air damper. When the choke cable is pulled, the air damper closes, the rods pull the throttle along with them and open it slightly.

When starting a cold engine, the 53 gas valves in the air damper open under the influence of vacuum and add air to the carburetor, preventing the engine from stalling with a mixture that is too rich.

Hello dear friends! Today we will talk to you about the K-135 carburetor, which is installed on Gas trucks with a ZmZ-511 gasoline engine and modifications. The carburetor is, as practice shows, an extremely important part of the entire fuel system in engines that use gasoline as fuel. It is the carburetor that creates the fuel mixture that enters directly into the combustion chambers.

Therefore, if the carburetor has not been adjusted correctly, the fuel mixture entering the engine will cause significant damage to it and lead to excessive fuel consumption. Modern devices, such as injectors, can automatically regulate the quality of the supplied fuel, but adjusting the GAZ 3307 carburetor still remains a pressing topic for most people.

Gas brand trucks are equipped with K-135 carburetors. All carburetors from the time the K-135 was created were created using a single system. The carburetor consists of two chambers and throttle valves connected to them, one per chamber. The chambers are complemented by screws; by turning them, you can adjust the quality of the fuel mixture formed in the carburetor. In carburetors, the fuel mixture is supplied in such a way that the engine is not subject to filling with gasoline, and it is easier to start it in difficult conditions, such as cold weather, for example, an accelerator system.

Adjusting the GAZ 3307 K-135 carburetor is a relatively simple process, but you can only start it if you have at least a basic understanding of the design and principles of carburetor adjustment. For example, there is no point in restricting the fuel supply to the carburetor without lowering the air supply level. Yes, in general there is no need to limit the supply of fuel and air, since, as practice shows, this does not lead to anything good. You may save some amount of money, but this will lead to premature wear of the engine, resulting in expensive repairs, so there is no need to limit anything, the manufacturer has set the standard, let everything remain that way.

Let's start cleaning and adjusting the K-135 carburetor. I repeat, if you do not have at least a basic understanding of the design and principles of carburetor adjustment, it is better not to bother, but if you are sure that you can handle it, then we will continue. Although if you follow the advice, then I think everything will work out for you.

First of all, of course, you need to remove the carburetor and completely disassemble it. When disassembling, it is easy to carry dirt inside the carburetor or break worn-in connections or seals. External washing is done with a brush using any liquid that dissolves oily deposits. This can be gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, their analogues, or special washing liquids dissolved in water. After washing, you can blow air over the carburetor, or simply blot it lightly with a clean cloth to dry the surface. The need for this operation is small, and it is not necessary to wash surfaces just for the sake of shine. To flush the internal cavities of the carburetor, you will need to at least remove the float chamber cover.

Removing the float chamber cover must begin by disconnecting the economizer drive rod and accelerator pump. To do this, you need to unscrew and remove the upper end of rod 2 from the hole in the lever (see Fig. 1). Then you should unscrew the seven screws securing the float chamber cover and remove the cover without damaging the gasket. To make the cover easier to remove, press the air damper lever with your finger. Move the cover to the side and only then turn it over the table so that the seven screws fall out. Evaluate the quality of the gasket. There should be a clear imprint of the body on it. No way, do not place the carburetor cover on the table with the float down!

Fig.1

Cleaning the float chamber is carried out to remove sediment that forms at its bottom. With the cover removed, you need to remove the bar with the accelerator pump piston and economizer drive and remove the spring from the guide.

Next, clean the float chamber from sediment and rinse with gasoline. It is better not to scrape off dirt that has already become embedded and stuck to the walls; it does not pose a danger. The likelihood of clogging of channels or jets due to improper cleaning is much greater than during normal operation.

The source of debris in the float chamber is, of course, gasoline itself. The reason for the inclusion of debris with gasoline is clogged fuel filters. Check the condition of all filters, replace and clean if necessary. In addition to the fine filter, which is installed on the engine and has a mesh or paper filter element inside, there is another one on the carburetor itself. It is located under the plug near the gasoline supply fitting on the carburetor cover. Another one, a sediment filter, stands near the gas tank and is attached to the frame; it also needs to be washed and cleaned.

After you are done with cleaning, you will need to remove all the jets. It’s better to try not to confuse the jets, because instead of one jet you won’t be able to screw in another, but still put it back where you removed it.

  1. Main fuel jets.
  2. The main air jets, under them in the wells there are emulsion tubes.
  3. Econostat valve.
  4. Idle fuel jets.
  5. Idle air jets. Unscrew by touch with a slotted screwdriver after the fuel has been removed.

The most important thing: after removing all the jets, do not forget to get the needle valve that is located in the channel of the accelerator pump, otherwise there is a high probability of losing it. (Some don't even know about its existence). To do this, carefully turn the carburetor over the table and the valve will fall out. It is made of the same material as the jets, that is, brass. In the photo, with a comment, you can see where it is installed.

After removing the jets, you need to flush all the channels. For this purpose, there are special cans of liquid for flushing the carburetor. They are sold in auto parts stores, so it is not difficult to buy. You need to spray the liquid into all carburetor channels with this can and leave it for a while (there are instructions on the can). After some time, you need to blow out all the carburetor channels with compressed air. You need to blow carefully so that any remaining liquid does not get into your eyes. After blowing everything needs to be wiped with a dry cloth and dried. Also, do not forget to clean and bleed all jets. Just do not clean the jets with metal wire under any circumstances.

Also check the condition of the accelerator pump, pay attention to the rubber seal on the piston and the installation of the piston in the housing. The cuff must, firstly, seal the injection cavity and, secondly, move easily along the walls. To do this, there should be no large marks (folds) on its working edge and it should not swell in gasoline. Otherwise, friction against the walls may become so difficult that the piston may not move at all. When you press the pedal, you act through the rod on the bar that carries the piston, the bar moves down, compressing the spring, and the piston remains in place. And fuel injection will not happen.

Now everything needs to be put back together in reverse order. After assembly, you will need to correctly set the fuel level in the float chamber. In old-style carburetors, it’s convenient to have a window; you set exactly half of the window and that’s it. The level is adjusted by bending or bending the special tendril of the float. But in the new model carburetors there is no window, you will have to use some tools. (see Fig. 2.) And once again I want to say, do not under any circumstances try to save money by reducing the fuel level in the float chamber, this will not lead to anything good. But expensive repairs will be inevitable.

Rice. 2. Scheme for checking the fuel level in the float chamber:

1 - fitting; 2 - rubber tube; 3 - glass tube.

Idle speed adjustment.

The minimum engine speed at which it operates most stably is adjusted using a screw that changes the composition of the combustible mixture, as well as a thrust screw that limits the extreme position of the damper. (See Fig. 3.) Idle speed is adjusted with the engine warmed up to operating temperature (80°C). In addition, all parts of the ignition system must be in good condition, and the clearances must comply with the passport data.

First, you need to tighten the two screws for adjusting the quality of the mixture completely, and then turn them out 2.5-3 turns. Start the engine and use the thrust screw to set the average crankshaft speed. After this, using quality screws, it is necessary to increase the rotation speed to 600 rpm. If the carburetor is adjusted correctly, then when the throttle is opened sharply, the engine should not stall, there should be no dips and should quickly pick up maximum speed.

I think this is where I can end the article. If suddenly you haven’t found something, or you simply don’t have time to search, then I recommend reading the articles in the categories " GAZ repair". I am sure you will find the answer to your question, and if not, write in the comments the question you are interested in, I will definitely answer.

The brochure is intended for car owners, service station workers and people studying the structure of the car

From the author
Carburetors of the K-126 series represent a whole generation of carburetors produced by the Leningrad carburetor plant "LENKARZ", which later became JSC "PEKAR" (St. Petersburg Carburetors), for almost forty years. They appeared in 1964 on the legendary GAZ-53 and GAZ-66 cars simultaneously with the then new ZMZ-53 engine. These engines from the Zavolzhsky Motor Plant replaced the famous GAZ-51 along with the single-chamber carburetor used on it.



A little later, from 1968, Pavlovsky bus factory began production of PAZ-672 buses, in the seventies a modification of PAZ-3201 appeared, later PAZ-3205, and all were equipped with an engine made on the basis of the same one that was used on trucks, but with additional elements. The power system did not change, and the carburetor was also, accordingly, of the K-126 family.



The impossibility of immediately completely switching to new engines led to the appearance in 1966 of the transitional GAZ-52 car with a six-cylinder engine. On them, in 1977, the single-chamber carburetor was also replaced by the K-126 with a corresponding replacement of the intake pipe. The K-126I was installed on the GAZ 52-03, and the K-126E on the GAZ 52-04. The only difference in carburetors concerns the different types of maximum speed limiters. Paired with carburetors K-126I, -E, -D, intended for the GAZ-52, a limiter was installed, which worked due to the high-speed pressure of air passing into the engine. The pneumatic centrifugal limiter of the K-126B or K-135 carburetor on ZMZ engines operates according to a signal from a centrifugal sensor installed on the toe of the camshaft.



ZMZ-53 engines were improved and changed. The last major change occurred in 1985, when the ZMZ-53-11 appeared with a full-flow oil filtration system, a single-tier intake pipe, screw intake ports, an increased compression ratio and a K-135 carburetor. But the family has not been broken, the K-135 has all the body parts of the K-126 family and only some differences in the cross-sections of the jets. In these carburetors, measures were taken to bring the composition of the prepared mixture closer to the requirements of new times, and changes were made to meet more stringent toxicity standards. In general, the carburetor adjustments have shifted to a poorer side. The design of the carburetor took into account the introduction of an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system on the engines, adding a vacuum tap to the EGR valve. In the text we will not use the K-135 markings except in isolated cases, considering it simply one of the modifications of the K-126 series.

The natural difference in the engines on which the K-126 is installed is taken into account in the size of the metering elements. First of all, these are jets, although diffusers of different diameters can also be found. The changes are reflected in the index assigned to each carburetor and this must be remembered when trying to replace one carburetor with another. A summary table of the dimensions of the main metering elements of all modifications of the K-126 is given at the end of the book. Column “K-135” is valid for all modifications: K-135, K-135M, K-135MU, K-135X.



It should be remembered that the carburetor is only part of a complex complex called an engine. If, for example, the ignition system does not work properly, the compression in the cylinders is low, or the intake tract is leaky, then it is, at least, illogical to blame only the carburetor for “failures” or high fuel consumption. It is necessary to distinguish between defects related specifically to the power system, their characteristic manifestations during movement, and components that may be responsible for this. To understand the processes occurring in the carburetor, the beginning of the book is devoted to a description of the theory of regulation of spark internal combustion engines and carburetion.



Currently, Pavlovsk buses are practically the only consumers of ZMZ eight-cylinder engines. Accordingly, carburetors of the K-126 family are becoming less and less common in the practice of repair services. At the same time, the operation of carburetors continues to pose questions that require answers. The last section of the book is devoted to identifying possible malfunctions carburetors and methods for eliminating them. Don’t expect, however, that you will find a universal “master key” to eliminate every possible defect. Assess the situation yourself, read what is said in the first section, “apply” it to your specific problem. Carry out a full range of work to adjust the carburetor components. The book is intended primarily for ordinary drivers and persons performing maintenance or repair of power systems in bus or car fleets. I hope that after studying the book they will no longer have questions regarding this family of carburetors.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION AND DEVICE OF THE CARBURETOR
1. Operating modes, ideal carburetor characteristics.
The power of internal combustion engines is determined by the energy contained in the fuel and released during combustion. To achieve more or less power, it is necessary, accordingly, to supply more or less fuel to the engine. At the same time, combustion of fuel requires an oxidizer—air. It is the air that is actually sucked into the engine pistons during the intake strokes. By using the gas pedal connected to the carburetor throttle valves, the driver can only limit the access of air to the engine or, on the contrary, allow the engine to fill to the limit. The carburetor, in turn, must automatically monitor the air flow entering the engine and supply a proportional amount of gasoline.



Thus, the throttle valves located at the outlet of the carburetor regulate the amount of the prepared mixture of air and fuel, and therefore the engine load. Full load corresponds to maximum throttle openings and is characterized by the greatest flow of combustible mixture into the cylinders. At “full” throttle the engine develops highest power, achievable at a given speed. For passenger cars the share of full loads in actual operation is small - about 10...15%. For trucks, on the contrary, full load modes occupy up to 50% of the operating time. The opposite of full load is idle. In relation to a car, this is the operation of the engine with the gearbox turned off, regardless of what the engine speed is. All intermediate modes (from idle to full load) fall under the definition of partial load.



A change in the amount of mixture passing through the carburetor also occurs at a constant throttle position in the event of a change in engine speed (the number of operating cycles per unit time). In general, load and rotation speed determine the operating mode of the engine.



A car engine operates in a huge variety of operating modes caused by changing road conditions or the desire of the driver. Each driving mode requires its own amount of engine power, each operating mode corresponds to a certain air flow and must correspond to a certain mixture composition. Mixture composition refers to the ratio between the amount of air and fuel entering the engine. Theoretically, complete combustion of one kilogram of gasoline will occur if slightly less than 15 kilograms of air are involved. This value is determined chemical reactions combustion and depends on the composition of the fuel itself. However, in real conditions it turns out to be more profitable to maintain the composition of the mixture, although close to the named value, but with deviations in one direction or another. A mixture in which there is less fuel than theoretically required is called lean; in which there is more - rich. For quantitative assessment, it is customary to use the excess air coefficient a, showing the excess air in the mixture:
a = Gв / Gт * 1о
where Gв is the air flow entering the engine cylinders, kg/hour;
GT — fuel consumption entering the engine cylinders, kg/hour;
1o - the estimated amount of air in kilograms required
for burning 1 kg of fuel (14.5…15).
For lean mixtures a >1, for rich mixtures - a The main output parameters of the engine are the effective power Ne (kW) and the specific effective fuel consumption g = Gm/Ne (g/kWh). Specific consumption is a measure of efficiency, an indicator of the perfection of the engine's operating process (the lower the value of ge, the higher the effective efficiency). Both parameters depend on both the quantity of the mixture and its composition (quality).

What mixture composition is required for each mode can be determined by special adjustment characteristics taken from the engine on a brake stand at fixed throttle positions and constant rotation speeds.

One of these characteristics is shown in Fig. 1.

Rice. 1. Adjustment characteristic for mixture composition: Engine ZMZ 53-18 n=2000 min’,P1,=68 kPa
The graph clearly shows that in this mode the maximum power is achieved with an enriched mixture a = 0.93 (such a mixture is usually called power), and the minimum specific fuel consumption, i.e. maximum efficiency, at lean a = 1.13 (the mixture is called economical).



It can be concluded that the appropriate control limits lie in the interval between the power and economical control points (indicated by an arrow in the figure). Beyond these limits, combustible mixture compositions are unprofitable, since working on them is accompanied by both a deterioration in efficiency and a drop in power. The increase in engine efficiency when the mixture is lean from power to economical is explained by an increase in the completeness of fuel combustion. With further depletion of the mixture, efficiency begins to deteriorate again due to a significant drop in power caused by a decrease in the combustion rate of the mixture. This should be remembered by those who, in the hope of reducing the fuel consumption of their engine, seek to limit the flow of gasoline into it.



For all partial load modes, economical mixture compositions are preferable, and working with economical mixtures will not limit our power. It should be remembered that power, which at a certain throttle position is achieved only with a power mixture, can also be obtained with an economy mixture, only with a slightly larger quantity (with a larger throttle opening). The leaner the mixture we use, the more it will be needed to achieve the same power. In practice, the power composition of the combustible mixture is organized only at full load.



By taking a series of control characteristics at different throttle positions, it is possible to construct the so-called optimal control characteristics, showing how the mixture composition should change when the load changes (Fig. 2).

Rice. 2. Characteristics of optimal regulation of a spark engine
Generally, perfect carburetor(if efficiency is the priority rather than toxicity, for example) should ensure a change in the composition of the mixture in accordance with line abc. Each point in section ab corresponds to an economical mixture composition for a given load. This is the longest part of the characteristic. At point b, a smooth transition to enriching the mixture begins, continuing until point c.



Any power value could be achieved using only power mixtures throughout the entire characteristic (dc line). However, running such mixtures at part loads does not make much sense, since there is a reserve of achieving the same power by simply opening the throttle and injecting more of the still economical mixture. Enrichment is really only necessary at full throttle openings, when the reserves for increasing the amount of mixture have been exhausted. If enrichment is not carried out, then the characteristic will “stop” at point b and the increase in power ANt will not be achieved. We will get approximately 90% of the possible power.
2. Carburetion, formation toxic components
In addition to dosing fuel, an important task facing the carburetor is organizing the mixing of fuel with air. The fact is that combustion requires not liquid, but gasified, evaporated fuel. The first stage of preparing the mixture takes place directly in the carburetor - atomizing the fuel, crushing it into the smallest possible droplets.



The higher the quality of atomization, the more evenly the mixture is distributed among individual cylinders, the more homogeneous the mixture in each cylinder, the higher the speed of flame propagation, power and efficiency while reducing the amount of incomplete combustion products. The complete evaporation process does not have time to occur in the carburetor, and part of the fuel continues to move along the intake pipe to the cylinders in the form of a liquid film. The design of the intake pipe thus has a fundamental impact on the engine output. The heat required to evaporate the film is specially selected and supplied to the air-fuel mixture from the coolant.



It should be remembered that the values ​​of the optimal mixture compositions determined by the characteristics may vary depending on various factors. For example, all of them are determined under the normal thermal state of the engine. The better the fuel is evaporated by the time it enters the cylinders, the more lean mixture compositions can achieve both maximum efficiency and maximum power. If the carburetor prepares an economical mixture for a warm engine, then at a low temperature (while warming up, with a faulty thermostat or its absence) this mixture will turn out to be leaner than necessary, the specific consumption will be sharply increased, and the operation will be unstable. The “colder” the engine, the richer the mixture must be supplied to it.



To a great extent, the composition of the air-fuel mixture determines the toxicity of exhaust gases. It should be remembered that car engine internal combustion can never be completely harmless. As a result of fuel combustion, in the most favorable outcome, carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O are formed. However, they are not toxic, i.e. poisonous and do not cause any disease in humans.

First of all, incompletely burned components are undesirable. exhaust gases, the most important and most frequent components which are carbon monoxide (CO), unburned or only partially burned hydrocarbons (CH), soot (C) and nitrogen oxides (NO). All of them are toxic and dangerous to the human body. In Fig. Figure 3 shows typical curves of changes in the concentrations of the three most well-known components depending on the composition of the mixture.

Rice. 3. Dependence of emissions of toxic components on the mixture composition of a gasoline engine
The concentration of carbon monoxide CO naturally increases with the enrichment of the mixture, which is explained by the lack of oxygen for the complete oxidation of carbon to CO2. The increase in the concentrations of unburned CH hydrocarbons in the region of rich mixtures is explained by the same reasons, and when depleted beyond a certain limit (dashed zone in the figure), a sharp rise in the CH curve is due to sluggish combustion and even sometimes misfiring of such lean mixtures.



One of the most toxic components in exhaust gases is nitrogen oxides, NOx. This symbol is assigned to a mixture of nitrogen oxides NO and NOa, which are not products of fuel combustion, but are formed in engine cylinders in the presence of free oxygen and high temperature. The maximum concentration of nitrogen oxides occurs at mixture compositions that are closest to economical, and the amount of emissions increases with increasing engine load. The danger of exposure to nitrogen oxides lies in the fact that poisoning of the body does not appear immediately, and there are no neutralizing agents.

At idle modes, where the toxicity test familiar to all motorists is carried out, this component is not taken into account, since the engine cylinders are “cold” and NOx emissions in this mode are very small.
3. Main carburetor metering system
K-126 carburetors are designed for multi-cylinder truck engines, which have a very large share of operation at full load. All cylinders in such engines, as a rule, are divided into groups, which are fed by separate carburetors or, as in the case of the K-126, by separate chambers of one carburetor. The division into groups is organized by manufacturing an inlet pipe with two independent groups of channels. Cylinders included in one group are selected so that excessive air pulsations in the carburetor and distortion of the mixture composition.



For eight-cylinder V-shaped ZMZ engines, with the cylinder operating order adopted for them, a uniform alternation of cycles in two groups will be observed when the cylinders operate one after another (Fig. 4 A). From Fig. 4 B it is clear that with such a division the channels in the intake pipe must intersect, i.e. be carried out on different levels. This was the case on the ZMZ-53 engine: the intake pipe was two-tiered.

into groups with uniform alternation:
a) according to the order of work; b) by location on the engine.

On ZMZ 53-11 engines, among other changes, the casting of the intake pipe was simplified, making it single-tier. From now on, the channels in the groups do not intersect; the cylinders of the left half-block belong to one group, and the cylinders of the right half-block to the second (Fig. 5).

1 - first carburetor chamber, 2 - second carburetor chamber
The cheaper design had a negative impact on the operating conditions of the carburetor. The uniformity of the alternation of cycles in each of the groups was disrupted, and along with it the uniformity of air intake pulses in the carburetor chambers. The engine becomes prone to scattering of the mixture composition in separate cylinders and successive cycles. With a certain average value, which is prepared by the carburetor, in individual cylinders (or cycles of the same cylinder), the mixture can be either richer or leaner. Consequently, when the average mixture composition deviates from the optimal composition in some cylinders, the mixture is more likely to go beyond the ignition limits (the cylinder turns off). This situation can be smoothed over partly due to the presence of a film of unevaporated fuel in the intake pipe, which “creeps” towards the cylinders relatively slowly.



Despite all the listed features, the K-126 vertical carburetor, with a falling flow, with parallel opening of the throttles, is actually two identical carburetors assembled in one body, where a common float chamber is located. Accordingly, it has two main dosing systems operating in parallel. In Fig. Figure 6 shows a diagram of one of them. It has a main air channel, which includes a small diffuser (spray) 16, installed in a narrow section of the main large diffuser 15, and a mixing chamber with a throttle 14. The throttle is a plate mounted on an axis, by turning which you can adjust the flow area of ​​the mixing chamber , and therefore air flow. Parallel opening of the throttles means that in each mixing chamber the throttle valves are installed on a common axis, the drive of which is organized from the gas pedal. By acting on the pedal, we open both throttles at the same angle, which ensures equality of air passing through the carburetor chambers.



The main metering system performs the main task of the carburetor - dosing fuel in proportion to the air entering the engine. It is based on a diffuser, which is a local narrowing of the main channel. In it, due to the relative increase in air speed, a vacuum (pressure below atmospheric) is created, depending on the air flow. The vacuum generated in the diffusers is transmitted to the main fuel jet 11, located at the bottom of the float chamber.

They are accessed through screw plugs 10 screwed into the wall of the float chamber housing 7. A nozzle is any calibrated hole for dosing fuel, air or emulsion. The most important of them are made in the form of separate parts inserted into the housing on a thread (Fig. 7). For any nozzle, not only the flow area of ​​the calibrated part is fundamental, but also the ratio between the length and diameter of the calibrated part, the angles of the inlet and outlet chamfers, the quality of the edges and even the diameters of the uncalibrated parts.



The required proportion of fuel to air is ensured by the ratio of the cross-sectional area of ​​the fuel nozzle and the cross-section of the diffuser. Increasing the jet will lead to a richer mixture in the entire range of modes. The same effect can be achieved by reducing the flow area of ​​the diffuser. The cross-sections of the carburetor diffusers are selected based on two conflicting requirements: the larger the diffuser area, the higher the power can be achieved by the engine, and the worse the quality of fuel atomization due to more low speeds air.

Rice. 7. Fuel jet diagram
l-length of the calibrated part
Considering that the large diffusers are plug-in and the dimensions are unified for all modifications of the K-126 (including passenger cars), there is no mistake when assembling. A diffuser with a diameter of 24 mm can easily be installed in place of a standard diffuser with a diameter of 27 mm.

To further improve the quality of atomization, a scheme with two diffusers (large and small) was used. Small diffusers are separate parts inserted into the middle part of large diffusers. Each of them has its own atomizer, connected by a channel to a hole in the body from which fuel is supplied.



Be careful about the channel orientation!



Each jet has a number stamped on it indicating the flow rate in cm3/min. This marking is adopted on all PEKAR carburetors. The test is carried out using a specialized flowing device and means the amount of water in cm3 passing through the nozzle in the forward direction per minute at a pressure of the liquid column of 1000 ± 2 mm. Deviations in the throughput of the jets from the standard should not exceed 1.5%.



Only a specialized enterprise with the appropriate equipment can truly produce a jet. Unfortunately, many people undertake the production of repair jets and, as a result, one cannot be completely sure that the main fuel jet marked “310” will not actually be size “285”. Based on experience, it is better to never change factory jets, especially since there is no particular need for this. The jets do not wear out noticeably even with long-term use, and a decrease in the cross-section due to resins deposited on the calibrated part is unlikely with modern gasoline.



In a carburetor, to maintain a stable pressure drop across the fuel nozzle, the fuel level in the float chamber must remain constant. Ideally, the fuel should be located at the level of the edge of the nozzle. However, to prevent spontaneous leakage of gasoline from the nozzle during possible tilting of the car, the level is maintained 2...8 mm lower. In most operating modes (especially truck, which has a large proportion of full loads), such a decrease in level cannot have any noticeable effect on the flow of gasoline. The vacuum in the diffuser can reach 10 kPa (which corresponds to a 1300 mm “gasoline” column) and, naturally, lowering the level by a few millimeters does not change anything. We can assume that the composition of the mixture prepared by the carburetor is determined only by the ratio of the areas of the fuel nozzle and the narrow cross-section of the diffuser. Only at the lightest loads, when the vacuum in the diffusers drops to less than 1 kPa, do errors in the fuel level begin to have an effect. To eliminate fluctuations in the fuel level in the float chamber, a float mechanism is installed in it. It is all assembled on the carburetor cover, and the fuel level is adjusted automatically by changing the flow area of ​​valve 6 (Fig. 8) by valve needle 5, actuated by tongue 4 on the float holder.

Rice. 8. Carburetor float mechanism:
1 — float; 2 — float travel limiter; 3 — float axis; 4 — level adjustment tongue; 5 — valve needle; 6 - valve body; 7 - sealing washer; A - distance from the plane of the cover connector to top point float; B - gap between the end of the needle and the tongue
As soon as the fuel level drops below the set level, the float, lowering along with it, will lower the tongue, which will allow needle 5, under the influence of the fuel pressure created by the fuel pump, and its own weight, to lower and let a larger amount of gasoline into the chamber. It can be seen that fuel pressure plays a certain role in the operation of the float chamber. Almost all gasoline pumps must create a gasoline pressure of 15...30 kPa. Deviations in a larger direction can even with correct adjustments float mechanism to create fuel leakage through the needle.



To control the fuel level, earlier modifications of the K-126 had an inspection window on the wall of the float chamber housing. Along the edges of the window, approximately along its diameter, there were two tides that marked the line of normal fuel level. In the latest modifications there is no window, and the normal level is marked with a mark 3 (Fig. 9) on the outside of the body.

To increase the reliability of locking, a small polyurethane washer 7 is placed on the valve needle 5 (Fig. 8), which retains elasticity in gasoline and reduces the locking force several times. In addition, due to its deformation, the vibrations of the float that inevitably occur when the car is moving are smoothed out. If the washer is destroyed, the tightness of the assembly is immediately irreversibly compromised.



The float itself can be brass or plastic. The reliability (tightness) of both is quite high, unless you deform it yourself. To prevent the float from knocking on the bottom of the float chamber when there is no gasoline in it (which is most likely when operating dual-fuel gas-cylinder cars), the float holder has a second antenna 2, resting on a stand in the body. By bending it, the needle stroke is adjusted, which should be 1.2 ... 1.5 mm. On a plastic float this tendril is also plastic, i.e. it cannot be bent. The needle stroke is not adjustable.



A simple carburetor, which has only a diffuser, a spray nozzle, a float chamber and a fuel nozzle, is able to maintain the mixture composition approximately constant throughout the entire air flow range (except for the smallest). But to get as close as possible to ideal characteristics dosing, as the load increases, the mixture should be leaner (see Fig. 2, section ab). This problem is solved by introducing a mixture compensation system with pneumatic fuel braking. It includes an emulsion well installed between the fuel nozzle and the sprayer with an emulsion tube 13 and an air nozzle 12 placed in it (see Fig. 6).



The emulsion tube is a brass tube with a closed bottom end, having four holes at a certain height. It is lowered into the emulsion well and pressed from above by an air jet screwed into the thread. With increasing load (vacuum in the emulsion well), the fuel level inside the emulsion tube drops and, at a certain value, is below the holes. Air begins to flow into the atomizer channel, passing through the air nozzle and holes in the emulsion tube. This air mixes with the fuel before leaving the atomizer, forming an emulsion (hence the name), facilitating further atomization in the diffuser. But the main thing is that the supply of additional air reduces the level of vacuum transmitted to the fuel nozzle, thereby preventing excessive enrichment of the mixture and giving the characteristic the necessary “slope”. Changing the cross-section of the air jet will have virtually no effect at low engine loads. At high loads (high air flows), increasing the air jet will provide a greater leanness of the mixture, and decreasing it will provide a richer mixture.
4. Idle system
At low air flow rates, which are present in idle modes, the vacuum in the diffusers is very small. This leads to instability in fuel dosing and a high dependence of its consumption on external factors, for example, fuel level. Under the throttle valves in the intake pipe, on the contrary, it is in this mode that the vacuum is high. Therefore, at idle and at low throttle opening angles, the fuel supply to the atomizer is replaced by a supply under the throttle valves. For this purpose, the carburetor is equipped with a special idle speed system (IAC).



The K-126 carburetors use a CXX scheme with throttle atomization. At idle, air enters the engine through a narrow annular gap between the walls of the mixing chambers and the edges of the throttle valves. The degree of closure of the throttles and the cross-section of the cracks formed are regulated by stop screw 1 (Fig. 10). Screw 1 is called the "quantity" screw. By turning it in or out, we regulate the amount of air entering the engine and thereby change the engine idle speed.



The throttle valves in both chambers of the carburetor are installed on the same axis and the “quantity” thrust screw regulates the position of both throttles. However, inevitable errors in the installation of throttle plates on the axle lead to the fact that the flow area around the throttles may be different. At large opening angles, these differences are not noticeable against the background of large flow sections. At idle, on the contrary, the slightest differences in the throttle settings become fundamental. The inequality of the flow sections of the carburetor chambers causes different air flow through them. Therefore, in carburetors with parallel opening of the throttles, one screw for adjusting the mixture quality cannot be installed. Personal adjustment is required for the cameras using two “quality” screws.

Rice. 10. Carburetor adjustment screws:
1 - thrust screw of the throttle valves (quantity screw); 2 - mixture composition screws (quality screws); 3 - limit caps
In the family under consideration there is one K-135X carburetor, in which the idle system was common to both chambers. There was only one “quality” adjusting screw and was installed in the center of the mixing chamber housing. From it, fuel was supplied into a wide channel, from which it diverged into both chambers. This was done to organize the EPH system, a forced idling economizer. The solenoid valve blocked the common idle speed channel and was controlled electronic unit according to signals from the ignition distributor sensor (rotation speed signal) and from the limit switch installed at the “quantity” screw. The modified screw with platform is visible in Fig. 14. Otherwise, the carburetor is no different from the K-135.



The K-135X is an exception and, as a rule, carburetors have two independent idle systems in each carburetor chamber. One of them is shown schematically in Fig. 11. Fuel is taken from them from the emulsion well 3 of the main metering system after the main fuel jet 2. From here, the fuel is supplied to the idle fuel jet 9, screwed vertically into the float chamber body through the cover so that it can be unscrewed without disassembling the carburetor. The calibrated part of the jets is made on the toe, below the sealing belt, which rests against the body when screwed. If there is no tight contact with the belt, the resulting gap will act as a parallel jet with a corresponding increase in the cross-section. On older carburetors, the idle fuel jet had an extended nose that went down to the bottom of its well.



After leaving the fuel nozzle, the fuel meets air supplied through the idle air nozzle 7, screwed under the plug 8. The air nozzle is necessary to reduce the vacuum on the idle fuel nozzle, form the required idle characteristics and prevent spontaneous leakage of fuel from the float chamber when stopped. engine

The mixture of fuel and air forms an emulsion, which flows down through channel 6 to the throttle body. Next, the flow is divided: part goes to the transition hole 5 just above the throttle edge, and the second part goes to the “quality” adjusting screw 4. After adjustment with the screw, the emulsion is discharged directly into the mixing chamber after the throttle valve.



On the carburetor body, “quality” screws 2 (Fig. 10) are located symmetrically in the throttle body in special niches. To prevent the owner from violating the adjustments, the screws can be sealed. To do this, plastic caps 3 can be put on them, limiting the rotation of the adjusting screws.

5. Transition systems
If the throttle of the primary chamber is smoothly opened, the amount of air passing through the main diffuser will increase, but the vacuum in it for some time will still be insufficient for fuel to flow out of the atomizer. The amount of fuel supplied through the idle system will remain unchanged, since it is determined by the vacuum behind the throttle. As a result, the mixture will begin to become leaner during the transition from idle to operation of the main metering system, until the engine stops. To eliminate the “failure”, transition systems are organized that operate at small throttle opening angles. They are based on transition holes located above the upper edge of each throttle when they are positioned against the stop in the “quantity” screw. They act as additional air jets of variable cross-section that control the vacuum of the idle fuel jets. At minimum idle speed, the transition hole is located above the throttle in an area where there is no vacuum. Gasoline does not leak through it. When the throttle moves up, the holes are first blocked due to the thickness of the damper, and then enter the zone of high throttle vacuum. High vacuum is transmitted to the fuel nozzle and increases fuel flow through it. Gasoline begins to leak not only through the outlet holes after the “quality” screws, but also from the transition holes in each chamber.



The cross-section and location of the vias are chosen so that when the throttle is opened smoothly, the composition of the mixture should remain approximately constant. However, to solve this problem, one via, which is available on the K-126, is not enough. Its presence only helps to smooth out the “failure” without eliminating it completely. This is especially noticeable on the K-135, where the idle system is made leaner. In addition, the operation of the transition systems in each of the chambers is influenced by the identity of the installation of the throttle plates on the axles. If one of the throttles is higher than the second, then it begins to close the transition hole earlier. In the other chamber, and therefore in the group of cylinders, the mixture may remain lean. Again, the fact that for a truck the operating time at low loads is short helps to smooth out the low quality of transition systems. Drivers “step over” this mode by immediately opening the throttle to a large angle. To a large extent, the quality of the transition to load depends on the operation of the accelerator pump.
6. Economizer
The economizer is a device for supplying additional fuel (enrichment) at full load conditions. Enrichment is necessary only at full throttle openings, when the reserves for increasing the amount of mixture have been exhausted (see Fig. 2, section bc). If the enrichment is carried out, then the characteristic will “stop” at point b and the increase in power ANe will not be achieved. We will get approximately 90% of the possible power.



In the K-126 carburetor, one economizer serves both carburetor chambers. In Fig. Figure 12 shows only one camera and its associated channels.

Economizer valve 12 is screwed into the bottom of a special niche in the float chamber. There is always gasoline above it. In the normal position, the valve is closed, and in order to open it, a special rod 13 must be pressed on it. The rod is fixed to a common bar 1 together with the piston of the accelerator pump 2. Using a spring on the guide rod, the bar is held in the upper position. The bar is moved by a drive lever 3 with a roller, which is turned by a rod 4 from the throttle drive lever 10. The drive adjustments should ensure that the economizer valve is activated when the throttles are opened by approximately 80%.



From the economizer valve, fuel is supplied through channel 9 in the carburetor body to the nozzle block. The K-126 nozzle block combines two nozzles of economizer 6 and accelerator pump 5 (for each carburetor chamber). The nozzles are located above the fuel level in the float chamber and for gasoline to flow through them, it must rise to a certain height. This is only possible in modes when there is a vacuum at the nozzle ends. As a result, the economizer supplies gasoline only when the throttles are fully open and the rotation speed is increased, i.e. performs partly the functions of an econostat.

The higher the rotation speed, the greater the vacuum created at the nozzles, and the greater the amount of fuel supplied by the economizer.

7. Acceleration pump
All the systems described above ensure engine operation in stationary conditions, when operating modes do not change or change smoothly. When you press the gas pedal sharply, the fuel supply conditions are completely different. The fact is that the fuel enters the engine cylinders only partially evaporated. Some of it moves along the intake pipe in the form of a liquid film, evaporating from the heat supplied to the intake pipe from the coolant circulating in a special jacket at the bottom of the intake pipe. The film moves slowly and final evaporation can occur already in the engine cylinders. With a sharp change in the throttle position, the air almost instantly takes on a new state and reaches the cylinders, which cannot be said about the fuel. The part of it that is enclosed in the film cannot quickly reach the cylinders, which causes some delay - a “failure” when the throttles are opened sharply. It is aggravated by the fact that when the throttles are opened, the vacuum in the intake pipe drops, and at the same time the conditions for evaporation of gasoline worsen.



To eliminate the unpleasant “failure” during acceleration, so-called accelerator pumps are installed on carburetors - devices that supply additional fuel only during sudden throttle openings. Of course, it will also largely turn into a fuel film, but with more gasoline, the “failure” can be smoothed out.



K-126 carburetors use a mechanical piston-type accelerator pump, which supplies fuel to both chambers of the carburetor regardless of air flow (Fig. 12). It has a piston 2 moving in the discharge chamber, and two valves - inlet 11 and discharge 7, located in front of the nozzle block. The piston is fixed to a common bar 1 together with the economizer pressure rod. The piston moves upward during the suction stroke (when the throttle is closed) under the action of a return spring, and when the throttle is opened, the bar with the piston moves down under the action of lever 3, driven by rod 4 from throttle lever 10. In the first designs of the K-126, the piston did not have a special seal and had inevitable leaks during operation. The modern piston has a rubber sealing collar that completely isolates the discharge cavity.



During the suction stroke, under the action of the spring, piston 2 rises and increases the volume of the discharge cavity. Gasoline from the float chamber through the inlet valve 11 freely passes into the discharge chamber. The discharge valve 7 in front of the sprayer closes and does not let air into the discharge chamber.



When the throttle drive lever 10 is sharply turned, rod 4 turns lever 3 with a roller on the axis, which presses bar 1 with piston 2. Since the piston is connected to the bar through a spring, in the first moments there is no movement of the diaphragm, but only compression of the spring under the bar, since gasoline filling the chamber cannot leave it quickly. Next, the already compressed piston spring begins to squeeze gasoline out of the discharge chamber to the atomizer 5. The discharge valve does not prevent this, and the inlet valve 11 blocks possible fuel leakage back into the float chamber.

The injection is thus determined by the piston spring, which must, at a minimum, overcome the friction of the piston and its cuff against the walls of the discharge chamber. Subtracting this force, the spring determines the injection pressure and implements continued fuel injection for 1...2 seconds. The injection ends when the piston lowers to the bottom of the injection chamber. Further movement of the bar only compresses the spring.
8. Starting device
No matter how well the listed carburetor systems are configured,
