Abstract: A roll-over valve attaches over an existing carburetor float bowl vent tube and closes when a car is involved in a crash to prevent or reduce fuel from escaping from a tilted or inverted carburetor and starting a fire. Carburetors are used in many special interest cars and race cars. The carburetors include float bowls containing fuel and the float bowls are vented to outside air by the carburetor vent tubes. The carburetor vent tubes are generally vertical tubes reaching upward from the carburetor into an air cleaner or the volume above the carburetor. The roll-over valve includes a compression fitting or other connector and is easily fitted to the carburetor.
