SIMPLE DEVICE FOR REDUCTION OF POLLUTION FROM MOTOR VEHICLES

A simple retrofit device was developed to reduce the exhaust emission from a spark ignition internal combustion engine, and complies with the U. S. Federal 1973 requirements and the current European maximum emission levels. The device aims at improving the vaporization and atomization of the air/fuel mixture fed to the engine by incorporating a second venturi and an air bleed under the existing carburetor.
