Turbine engines use fuel nozzles to inject fuel directly into the combustion chamber.
Carburetors are for piston engines.

All turbines are the equivalent of fuel injected, to provide the correct fuel/air ratio.
For a piston engine aircraft, the carburettor controls the fuel/air ratio.

There's no carburators for jet engines. Carburators look just like the ones in the cars, and only piston aircrafts have them. When the carburators open up, the air goes into the engine. But for jet engines, they don't need that because the whole engine itself is the intake, haha.
