A repair bench charges 20% of the recipe to fix a broken item, less when it is only worn.
What the High Quality Carburetor gives back in each recycler
| Recycler | Efficiency | You get |
|---|---|---|
| Red recycler | 75% | 127 + 50% Metal Fragments |
| Green recycler (powered) | 60% | 102 Metal Fragments |
| Green recycler | 50% | 85 Metal Fragments |
| Yellow recycler | 40% | 68 Metal Fragments |
The High Quality Carburetor breaks down into Metal Fragments.
A recycler takes them one at a time, so a full stack of 5 goes through in 5 cycles.
Figures are for one item in perfect condition. Each recycler’s name opens its full table at this item. “127 + 50%” means 127 every time and a 50% chance of one more.
In Rust, High Quality Carburetor is a car and horse part in the Components category (item ID #656371026, console shortname carburetor3). In active play, it follows standard server rules for car and horse part gear across procedural maps. Inventory storage stacks up to 5 units per slot, and uncollected ground drops despawn after 5 minutes.
A high quality carburetor for a combustion engine. Mixes air and fuel to the proper ratio.
Crafting High Quality Carburetor in Rust takes 5 seconds at a Workbench Level 3 once the 15 scrap blueprint node is unlocked, with all ballistics, crafting, and durability values read from the Rust game files. Shredding a spare copy at a green recycler recovers base materials at fifty percent yield (vs forty percent at safe-zone yellow units). Damaged copies repair at a Repair Bench for a fraction of recipe cost.
Most car and horse parts stack to 1; the High Quality Carburetor stacks to 5.
When choosing between High Quality Carburetor and related components in Rust, prioritize researching a looted or traded copy at a Research Table (15 scrap) whenever you want to skip the 285-scrap tech tree path and save 270 scrap, or unlock the tech tree branch when your group also needs the prerequisite blueprints.
| Item | Category | Stack Limit | Craft / Source | Tech Tree / Research | Green Recycler Yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| High Quality Carburetor | Components | 5 per slot | Workbench Level 3 | 15 node / 285 path | Not recyclable |
| Medium Quality Carburetor | Components | 5 per slot | Workbench Level 2 | 15 node / 270 path | Not recyclable |
| Low Quality Carburetor | Components | 5 per slot | Workbench Level 1 | 15 node / 255 path | Not recyclable |
| Cockpit Vehicle Module | Components | 1 per slot | Workbench Level 2 | 60 node / 240 path | Not recyclable |

The High Quality Carburetor is crafted at a Workbench Level 3 from 170 Metal Fragments in 5 seconds, once the blueprint is learned in Rust. Players smelt raw ores in a furnace and gather required components from monument crates before queuing the craft at their workbench.
The High Quality Carburetor recycles in Rust at an unpowered green recycler into 85 Metal Fragments. Monument green recyclers shred items one unit at a time on fast radtown cycles, whereas safe-zone yellow units trade lower material recovery for peacekeeper protection.
A repair bench fixes the High Quality Carburetor from broken for 34 Metal Fragments in Rust. Repairing at a Repair Bench requires no learned blueprint or rare component body, scaling material cost to missing durability while permanently capping maximum condition by 20% across a full repair.
Blueprint progression for High Quality Carburetor at Engineering Workbench in Rust charges 15 scrap on the target node and 285 cumulative scrap along the prerequisite branch, while direct blueprint study at a Research Table charges 15 scrap.
Dropped on the ground in Rust, the High Quality Carburetor despawns after 5 minutes by default. Picking it back up into a player inventory or storing it inside a base container immediately resets that ground despawn timer, which the server scales by item rarity tier.
The High Quality Carburetor stacks to 5 per slot in Rust. Players can split a pile in half with middle-click drag or move a custom quantity with Shift-click drag across inventory slots, storage boxes, and the Tool Cupboard, while dropped copies despawn after 5 minutes under the Components category (item ID 656371026).
The High Quality Carburetor has 32-bit signed item ID 656371026 and shortname carburetor3 in Rust. Server plugins, custom loot tables, Vending Machine listings, and automated Industrial Conveyor filter strings reference these two identifiers under the Components category (stack limit 5 units per slot).
Server administrators in Rust spawn the High Quality Carburetor in the F1 developer console with inventory.give carburetor3 5 or inventory.giveid 656371026 5 for 5 units. Both console spawn commands require administrator or moderator privileges on the server, while regular players can bind a quick-craft shortcut key instead.
