Most engines use a single carburetor shared between all of the cylinders, though some high-performance engines historically ...

5. Flooded engine - Wikipedia

   Flooding usually occurs during starting, especially under cold conditions or because the accelerator has been pumped. It can also occur during hot starting; high temperatures may cause fuel in the carburetor float chamber to evaporate into the inlet manifold, causing the air/fuel mixture to exceed the upper explosive limit.

6. Fuel injection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_injection

   Single-point injection was a relatively low-cost way for automakers to reduce exhaust emissions to comply with tightening regulations while providing better "driveability" (easy starting, smooth running, no engine stuttering) than could be obtained with a carburettor. Many of the carburettor's supporting components—such as the air filter ...
