your engine is not carbed it is injection, you have a injection fuel tank, ecu etc etc going backward in technology is bad.

(yes i know it looks like you have a carb but you dont)

It means you're wrong.

If carbs are better why does almost every car on the market within the last 20 years or so have injection?
