No one want to fiddle with carburetor anymore thank you very much.
And tbh, 2010-2015 is comfortable enough and less bullshit.
I think that's more aimed at Internet connected vehicles than those with an ECU.
Speak for yourself, there's nothing wrong with my carburettor!
My distributor on the other hand is a pain in the ass. Electronic ignition has its upsides...
I wouldn't say no one. Carbs are just fine, and were insanely good before they were killed off. With our research now, We could have AMAZING carbs. And guess what, you can fix them yourself!
Myself and many others need nothing more than roll down windows, am radio, and a seat belt. Too many lazy people today want to drive a damn land yacht with 56 screens in it. yells at cloud
I get that, but honestly i'm getting tired of having to adjust the distributor timing and fiddle with the air-fuel ratio to get it just "right", else the car would either underpowered, use a lot more fuel, or emission is gonna be off the chart. If you work on your own car then it would be all right, it's a nightmare for people who fix it for a living. But i do get that, when it works, it works really nice.
Yeah I prefer basic efi except when the factory in Taiwan stops making the plastic sensor you need, youre screwed. Thats pretty much all car parts now
I think my current issue with carburetor is exactly that, i can't take it apart because everything seized, i can't get a used one because it's rare, and i can't get a new one because all on the market is kinda crap. I guess that's basically how most reliable thing get phased out.
