Abstract

Main and auxiliary fuel injectors are installed at an intake passageway connectable to the cylinders of the engine. Only the main fuel injector is operated to inject fuel therefrom during a relatively low load engine operation, and both the main and auxiliary fuel injectors are operated to inject fuel therefrom during a relatively high load engine operation.
