two questions. What is a "chimichanga".One of the spark plug orifice on the inside of the rotor housing is smaller than the other, for our use is it enlarged?

But what happens in carbuerated systems?  There is a bowl there
collecting and holding a 1/2 cup of fuel along with the delivery lines
and the pumps only deliver a few pounds of pressure vs the 10's of pound
in an injected systems.  How do the carbs get away with it?

 
Simple, they vent.  The bowl is open to the atmosphere, so any vapor escapes.  The only requirement is that the fuel pump be able to get enough liquid fuel into the bowl to keep the level correct.  It can pump 90% air, and 10% fuel, as long as that 10% is enough to keep the bowl full. 
 
Cheers,
Rusty (time for a chimichanga)
