accessories question
Does anyone know the function of these accessories? I found it on a newly bought 1926 Ford Model-T. It was mounted between the carburetor and the intake manifold. There is a metal ball in each of the two small chambers. In the large chamber is a nozzle that comes from the wire jacket.

Re: accessories question
Was the goal maybe a finer atomization?

Re: accessories question
Seems to be similar to this one, to provide finer atomization to the fuel. Some other types have a twisted wire and contacts for + _ to add battery wire to pre-heat the fuel for better starting. Think yours is this type:
