A carburetor (American English)[1] or carburettor (British English)[2][3] is a device that mixes air and fuel for internal combustion engines in an appropriate air–fuel ratio for combustion. The term is sometimes colloquially shortened to carb in the UK and North America or to carby in Australia.[4] To carburate or carburete (and thus carburation or carburetion, respectively) means to mix the air and fuel or to equip (an engine) with a carburetor for that purpose.
Fuel injection technology has largely supplanted carburetors in the automotive and, to a lesser extent, aviation industries. Carburetors are still common in small engines for lawn mowers, rototillers, and other equipment.
