Mixing of fuel and air depends on type of the engine whether SI or CI. In carburetted versions of SI engines the charge mixes in the carburetion chamber and the mixture is let into the engine. There are direct injection SI engines(GDI) where the injection takes places at various stages of charge compression stroke. In CI engines the fuel is mixed with air in the combustion chamber itself. It is to be borne in mind that these mixing phenomenon are the same be it a new or old car.

How fuel is burnt in engine?
Fuel is mixed with air, compressed then ignited.
What does an air filter do in a car?
An air filter cleans the air going into the engine, either through the carberetor or the fuel injenction system. The air filter cleans the air that will be mixed with the fuel to create the combustible gas that powers your engine.
How does a jet engine create thrust?
There are a few different jet engines, but it basically needs bleed air and fuel. Air enters the engine where it is compressed and mixed with fuel. Next, the air/fuel is heated in a combustion chamber, then it is unleashed through the turbine as thrust.
Where is the carburetor on a Chevrolet 5.7 engine located?
If it is newer then a 1986 then it don't have a carburetor, It is fuel injected. If its older than 86, on top of the engine under the air cleaner
Where is the carburetor located in a Ford Contour?
There is no carb on a contour. All contours were fuel injected, so the fuel and air is mixed in the engine, the carb is not needed.
What is engine choke?
Choke is a mode of air/fuel mixing that causes a rich mixture (meaning a lot of fuel). This is often used upon starting the engine. it is applied manually in older cars, but newer cars have an ECM to control such functions.
What does it mean when an engine runs lean?
The goal of a carburetor is to mix just the right amount of gasoline with air so that the engine runs properly. If there is not enough fuel mixed with the air, the engine "runs lean" and either will not run or potentially damages the engine.
Which of the following takes place in the combustion chamber of a gas turbine engine a fuel oil is stored with sufficient pressure b fuel oil is mixed with a proper portion of compressed air?
mixture of fuel oil and compressed air is ignited.
How do you decelerated engine speed?
most engines have a carburetor. engines with carburetors are controlled by a butterfly valve. this butterfly valve controls the fuel/air mixture. the more air there is, the faster the fuel burns, making the engine run faster. when the butterfly valve is closed, a minimum amount of air is mixed with the fuel, which makes it burn slower. that in turn, makes the engine run slower
How does the gas in a car get to the engine?
A fuel pump sucks it from the tank to the carburetor or injector pump depending on whether it is carbureted of fuel injected. from there it is mixed with air and sucked or injected into the cylinders.
Which component is an engine-driven air pump that forces air-fuel mixture into the engine?
fuel pump
What does a fuel system do?
A FUEL SYSTEM stores, and supplies fuel to the cylinder chamber where it can be mixed with air (air & fuel ratio) to transmit power
