I received my copy of this book last night. Although I have only read the first 25 pages, they are excellent and I now understand the principles of carburetion much better than before.

I have previously spent quite a bit of time studying Pat Braden's book on Weber Carburetors, which is a good book specific to Webers. However, Aird's book (to me) provides a much clearer explanation as to the principles involved. Aird is especially helpful in his passages about how and why the air correction jets and emulsion tubes work and how they interact with each other and the main circuit.

As a novice trying to understand and tune my Webers, I'd still buy both books, but I would rely primarily on Aird for comprehension of why the darn things work the way they do.

I feel like a nerd getting excited about a carburetion book, but hey, epiphanies are where you find them.

if you have a holley or a rochester or a carter or weber, definitely buy this book. It goes into good detail about carb theory and how they all work.

I have been around cars for more than fourty years,This book was still a great learning Tool.
Clearly written and detailed,Linked up a lot of pieces of Information I had.And put it in order
