YKYA[old]EM when you're standing at an auto parts counter and when a guy walks in with a four-barrel carb, the kid behind the counter says "I've never seen a carburetor before." !!

I told him the carburetor was a big improvement over what came before, turns out those were called a wick carburetor.

I said he could download a 34 PICT Solex single barrel from Thingiverse to see how they work, and the other guy behind the counter said he would do that but his Creality 10 was having problems printing in PETG. Good times.
