The car

RE: The car
Not sure about over there, but over here cars have not had carbs since the late '80s.

My last carbed vehicle was a Mitsubishi pickup from 1988 and it was backed up by a Chevy from 1989 that was fuel injected.

I do not know of a single vehicle that would pass an emissions test without fuel injection mfg in the past 30 years.

I will just about guarantee that anything you are driving made in 2001-2002 has fuel injection and a pressurized fuel pump immersed in the fuel tank. You also have all of the computer assists and controls of any other modern vehicle to regulate fuel flow and exhaust emissions. Your MOT system insures that.

While carbs operate from vacuum and depend on suction created by the engine the FI system squirts fuel in under external pressure and they clear blockages better. That is why they do better with crap fuel and will burn stuff your lawn mower, trimmer or chain saw will not run on if it has sit for two days.
