- A 'classic' 2-stroke engine has the carb feeding into the crankcase, where the fuel/oil mix lubes the bearings. What happens to that fuel? It seems it must end up getting burned? If so, does it need to re-vaporize?
- Our Stihl trimmer (FS36) has a membrane carburator. AIUI, these are supposed to operate in any position. So, what drives the fuel from the tank to the carb? I'd thought that the fuel tank was (slightly) pressurized for this. (There's a 2nd hose between them, running through the primer bulb.) But, when I remove the carb fuel hose, with the engine running, no gas comes out of the hose. Is fuel just pulled by the venturi vacuum?
Thanks, George
