Abstract
A carburetor for a two stroke engine includes a flow duct comprising rich and lean flow passages separated by a partition, at least one fuel jet communicating with the rich passage, the partition including an aperture towards which the fuel jet is directed, and a substantially planar butterfly valve being received in the aperture so as to be pivotable between a first position, in which the flow duct is substantially closed and the aperture is substantially open, and a second position, in which the flow duct is substantially open and the aperture is substantially closed, the flow duct further including a venturi section located substantially upstream of the aperture, and wherein the venturi section extends only partially around a perimeter of the flow duct.
