Abstract

A carburetor is provided with a fuel passage which leads to a float chamber and has an air bleed opening therein, and has a nozzle leading from the fuel passage to the intake passage to discharge fuel with air bubbles into it. The nozzle is formed as a multiconduit structure along at least part of its length, in order to improve breaking up of air bubbles in the fuel, and the atomization thereof.
