- tetris11 6y agoAgreed. Here's a cross view of the Venturi pump https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File%3AEjector_or_Injector.svg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File%3AEjector_or_Injector.svg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_ejector https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_ejector

- laurent92 6y agoI don’t understand: If we use the Venturi effect, that means we’re pulling air and mixing it with gasoline. Are we really pre-mixing air+gasoline into the tank? Isn’t that a much higher risk of sudden explosion, compared to a tank with only carburant and no comburant?
- kortilla 6y agoThe gas tank already has air in it. It doesn’t crush when you run low on fuel...
