Abstract
An intake system construction for an internal combustion engine having a generally straight first intake port, a generally helical second intake port, both intake ports opening to one combustion chamber, and a common intake passage for supplying fuel-air mixture to the two intake ports. A control valve is fitted in the first intake port for selectively throttling the first intake port at low load operation of the engine, and a deflection valve is fitted in the commmon intake passage for selectively constricting intake flow through the common intake passage to deflect the flow toward the second intake port and away from the first intake port at low load operation of the engine, so that fuel accumulation on the cotrol valve closed at low load operation of the engine is avoided.
