'"ling 8ange 2:-<3• During i"ling, engine operates at no loa" an" close" throttle.

•  )he engine requires rich mi9ture for starting at i"ling.

• 8ich mi9ture is require" to compensate for the charge "ilution"ue to e9haust gases from the combustion chamber.

• Also, the amount of fresh charge a"mitte" is less "ue to smallerthrottle opening.

• E9haust gas "ilution pre#ents e=cient combustion b( re"ucingthe contact bet1een the fuel an" air particles.

• 8ich mi9ture impro#es the contact of fuel an" air b( pro#i"ing

re"uces an" the mi9ture requirement shifts to the leaner si"e.
