Abstract
An intake manifold for a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine contains main intake passages leading from a main distribution chamber for supplying lean mixture to each cylinder. The intake manifold also has auxiliary intake passages leading from an auxiliary distribution chamber for supplying a rich mixture to each cylinder. Engine coolant is circulated through the intake manifold to act as heating means for the rich mixture and for part of the lean mixture. Another part of the lean mixture is not heated.
