Abstract
A tubular body projects through the normal inlet opening in the inlet manifold of a conventional internal combustion engine. The quantity of fuel mixture flowing through the bore in the body is controlled by a throttle valve which is reciprocally movable relative the discharge end of the body which resides within the manifold. Biasing means normally retracts the valve to an engine idle position. The valve is extended in response to engine demand. Droplets of liquid within the fuel mixture are atomized in response to an annular deflector which directs the mixture from the sidewall of the bore to be impinged upon the planar surface of the valve. A stationary screen encompassing the valve further atomizes the mixture. Baffels are provided to direct the fuel charge toward the combustion chambers.
