Abstract
A fuel injection system of the single point, throttle body type in which a fuel injector is located centrally above the inlet to an air throttling body that contains a variable venturi consisting of a plug and nozzle assembly wherein the plug includes a fuel dispersion plate directing the fuel towards a movable nozzle together defining a convergent-divergent flow air that is variable in area in response to the dynamic pressure of the air against it at higher air flows or alternately responsive to the suction of the engine at low air flows to be moved to a position providing essentially a constant air velocity flowing past the fuel under all conditions of operation to shear the fuel and thereby atomize the same for an economical and efficient operation of the engine.
