Best Answer

Fuel Injection.

This is controlled by a computer which squirts just the right amount of fuel into the cylinders depending upon what amount is required (more in going faster or uphill or carrying a heavy load).

That not only prevents wasted fuel but also helps the engine to run more cleanly, If a catalyst filter is fitted too, this removes or changes the nasty gases coming from the exhaust pipe into otherwise fresh air.

It's not necessary if you have fuel injection. Any gas engine which does not have fuel injection, like most small equipment engines, uses a carburetor.
