Diaphragm carbs- stay the * away from them. Oh and 1 idle mixture screw, one idle speed screw. Just like every other carb. These thing are for airplanes and such that require a carb to work inverted, more problems than they are worth. I know because I ran a set of four of them on a race motor and finally went back to normal carbs after 6 months of trying to make them work.

Is that what they are called? Interesting.
I looked at this exploded part diagram and it has an idle mixture screw as well as a "high speed mixture screw."

Oh great, the morons have stepped back into the 1950's, which is when the rest of the world stopped using operator adjustable high speed jets. Mainly because the idiots would turn the high speed screw in (leaner) when they wanted to go faster and fry their motor and that is why fixed high speed jets came into being.
