Metering rods are a tunable component that allows you to fine-tune your carburetor's performance for optimal drivability, fuel economy, and power delivery. The stepped design features a thicker upper section (.070") that provides leaner fuel delivery at part-throttle conditions, and a thinner lower section (.052") that allows richer fuel flow when the engine is under load. Replacing worn or switching to different diameter metering rods is a common tuning method to optimize carburetor performance for specific engine combinations and driving conditions.
