Abstract
An engine comprising a variable venturi-type carburetor which has a raised wall formed on the inner wall of the intake passage thereof. The suction piston of the carburetor has a tip face having a V-shaped cross-sectional upstream end portion which cooperates with the raised wall for defining an approximately isosceles triangle-shaped airflow-restricting opening therebetween when the amount of air flowing within the intake passage is small. An electromagnetic valve is arranged in an air-bleed passage of the carburetor and is periodically opened at a fixed frequency of 1 to 2 Hz so that the air-fuel ratio fluctuates at a fixed frequency within the range of .+-.0.2 A/F unit through a .+-.1.0 A/F unit relative to an approximately stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.
