<p>A carburetor fuel adjustment and limiter assembly (20) for a combustion engine which limits the maximum and minimum adjustment of a fuel valve of the carburetor. A needle valve (24,26) of the adjustment and limiter assembly (26) cooperates with a collar and pin generally located axially inward of an enlarged valve head. The collar (28,30) of the limiter assembly is arranged telescopically with a valve shaft and is yieldably biased to releasably lock to the head when moved in an axially outward direction. When locked, and upon rotation of the valve (24,26), first and second stops (32,34) carried by the collar (28,30) are arranged to bear on a stationary pin carried by a carburetor body. During manufacture, the collar can be pushed axially inward against the bias of the spring (82) to disengage the collar (28,30) from the head to permit rotation of the needle valve while the collar (28,30) remains stationary for unlimited adjustment of the needle valve (24,26).</p> |
