carbureted
Mixed with gasoline
Carbureted describes an engine that uses a carburetor to mix fuel with air before combustion.
Until the late 20th century, most gasoline engines were carbureted; fuel injection has since become standard.
The old carbureted motor ran rough in cold weather.
Also spelled carburetted.
