A control system for evaporated fuel in a supercharged internal combustion engine having a canister including a reservoir for temporarily accommodating evaporated fuel by adsorption, an intake manifold downstream from a throttle valve and an intake duct upstream from the throttle valve, the intake manifold being communicated with the canister through a first evaporated fuel supply passage having a first purge control valve and the intake duct being communicated with the canister through a second evaporated fuel supply passage having a second purge control valve, wherein the second purge control valve is opened to urge the canister in communication with the intake duct through the second evaporated fuel supply passage when the negative pressure within the intake duct has reached a predetermined value or more.

Supercharged internal combustion engine

A fraction of exhaust gas heatingly contacts an induction manifold riser bottom wall and an adjacent radiating wall to heat said riser bottom wall rapidly to vaporize fuel droplets passing through multiple air fuel induction passages.

Manifold system

An exhaust manifold has dual liner structure constructed of an intermediate liner forming a chamber and a plurality of sleeves extending outwardly from the chamber and of an inner liner within the intermediate liner. The inner liner forms a reaction chamber within the chamber of the intermediate liner and a plurality of tubes extending outwardly from the reaction chamber and mounted within the sleeves, respectively. The tubes have inlet ports for connection to exhaust ports of an internal combustion engine. The reaction chamber is formed with a plurality of apertures opening to the chamber of the intermediate liner to let hot gases to flow into the chamber of the intermediate liner embracing the reaction chamber. The chamber of the intermediate liner is formed with an outlet port for connection to an exhaust pipe.
