Jet Mixture System

Jet mixture system supplies fuel to the engine through jet mixture passages and jet valves for optimum air/fuel mixture. The system is calibrated by jet mixture solenoid which responds to electrical impulses from the ECU.

If oxygen sensor detects a lean condition, the ECU energizes the solenoid to enrich the mixture. If sensor detects a rich condition, the ECU signals the solenoid to lean out the mixture.
