Abstract
An auxiliary passage of a relatively small cross-sectional area bypasses the main throttle valve of a usual induction passage to extend to each intake port. The auxiliary passage allows air or an air-fuel mixture to pass therethrough according to the magnitude of vacuum in the intake port and, in its endmost portion, takes the form of a nozzle directioned circumferentially of the intake port, so that the air-fuel mixture flowing in the intake port is agitated to thorough homogenization by a swirling movement of the injected gas particularly efficiently during low load operation of the engine.
