    How to measure fuel consumption (flow) with a small carburetor 2-stroke engine

    @ benta: I know this type of measurement, but to measure accurately the air-mass intake AND the CO in the exhaust, is also quite expensive, and still not as accurate within 1%. Besides that, I think this is more suitable for a 4-stroke, a 2-stroke engine has stil a lot of oxygen in the exhaust...

    How to measure fuel consumption (flow) with a small carburetor 2-stroke engine

    Thanks for the fast answers allready!! The method with the weight scale, burret and stopwatch I knew. But for a transient measurement, connected to other measurements (temperature, pressure, exhaust emission), it is not the best method because it's hard to combine those measurements afterwards...
