Abstract
An internal combustion engine subject to low-temperature operation in humid regions is provided with means to heat the carburetor so as to prevent icing and excessive condensation of fuel from the fuel/air charge. The heat is preferably supplied to the wall of the intake passage just downstream from the throttle valve, and may be derived from engine coolant, engine gas exhaust, or from a separately-powered heater.
