In 2374, Tom Paris drew on the carburetor as inspiration when attempting to overcome the instability of a coaxial warp drive. Paris conceived of the idea of using a polaric modulator to dilute the particle stream entering the coaxial drive, thereby solving the problem of particle instabilities resulting in engine overloads. When a hostile alien later attempted to escape aboard a Starfleet shuttlecraft which had been installed with a coaxial drive, Paris was able to target the modulator with a chromoelectric pulse, disrupting the shuttle's engines and preventing the alien's escape.

- A carburetor (commonly called just "carb") is a mechanical device that mixes fuel and air, for combustion by an engine. They have needles to adjust the amount of fuel that is mixed into the air, a throttle to change the amount of fuel/air mixture into the engine to change the engine speed, and sometimes on gasoline engines, a choke valve to restrict the amount of air going into the engine for easier starting.
- The Carburetor is a mailable Item used in Rank 3 to create cars and race them against other users.
