Abstract
A turbocharger especially for marine engines includes a dual chamber block interposed between the carburetor and the turbocharger. The block includes a first chamber for receipt of a fuel air mixture and a second chamber separated by a heat transfer wall from the first chamber. The second chamber receives hot water from the cooling system of the engine and effectively directs heat through the heat transfer wall to prevent condensation of fuel from the fuel air mixture in the first chamber. Consequently, it is possible to use a rich air fuel mixture and maintain the mixture in a vaporized state to prevent premature detonation and deterioration of the engine.
