Abstract
A multi-stage carburetor has a primary throttle bore that is extended into the intake manifold in close proximity to the exhaust gas heated manifold floor, and a secondary bore that surrounds a portion of the primary bore and terminates at the inlet to the intake manifold so as to avoid a restriction to flow of secondary air into the manifold and past the primary passage.
