<p>A metering rod support for a carburetor for an internal combustion engine in which a vertical extending metering rod is positioned in a metering jet to control the flow of fuel to the fuel nozzle discharging in the air and fuel mixture conduit. An integral one-piece hanger member wholly supports the metering rod and has a downwardly extending leg which contacts and continuously urges the metering rod in a horizontal direction into contact with the inner peripheral surface defining the metering jet thereby to provide improved flow characteristics. The one-piece hanger member is formed of a molded plastic material and when employed with an adjusting screw for varying the height of the metering rod receives the adjusting screw in a tight fit within an internally threaded opening.</p> |
