I was wondering if you could explain (if there are any) the benifits of running a carb setup over an fuel injection setup. Say you have a FC for example that is fuel injection and for whatever reason (system is dead) you are looking at other options.

Are there benifits from running a carb. I know they can be alittle bit more picky especially when outside sources (weather, temp) are involved but is there any gains with a carb over EFI.

Maybe also explain what some disadvantages are (daily/weekly tuning?) of running a carb over EFI.

Thanks,
Jonathan
