A sleeve 27 is mounted in the-casing l,

the said sleeve being the throttle valve, and

the lower edge of the sleeve is at the center of the-groove or trough 6, before men tioned. v Astop is provided for limiting the down ward movementof the sleeve) the stop he- .threaded through the bottom of the trough or depression 26 at the in-ta'ke 3,. and a lock nut 29 is. threaded on to the set screw for locking the same in adjusted position.

The inner end of the set screw is in po sition for engagement by the lower end of i the throttle sleeve to limit the downward the sleeve as will be-evident movement thereof, and the arrangement is such that when the lower end of the sleeve engages the upper end of the set screw the said lower end will be spaced slightly above the bottom of the trough. The passages 7 communicate with the trough just inside of tion ofthe drawing. The bar 26 before mentioned, has its inner end provided-with a reduced threaded stem 30, which engages a threaded opening in one side of the s'leeve and the bar extends diametrically of the sleeve. The sleeve is provided with an opening 31 at the oppo- 'site side from the opening for the stem through which the bar passes, and the easopening 31. l

ing 1 has an opening 32 in register with the from an inspecvalve may lie-adjusted to suit conditions by turning the valve in the proper direction. In addition it will not be necessary to flood the carbureter on starting, since the mere act of opening the throttle valve to the level of the fuel will increase the supply of fuel to the carlnneter. Since thereis no resistance or drag to the air because of air valves,

springs and (lash post, the speed of air pastthe nozzles and the suction in the intake manifold is determined by the speed of motor and the opening of the throttle. l sually on quick opening of the throttle at slow motor speed the SNCL-lOH would decrease to a point such that the mixture would he too poor. The high level of the fuel insures a 26 and the otheremi is adapted to engage 'shaft 33 is oscillated the sleeve will bemoved longitudinally of the casing. The sleeve 27,-

is as before stated, the throttle. valve and the supply of fuel to the trough. 6 is controlled by the needle valvell, which is directly'connected with the throttle by means of the bar 26.

The float 22 i to its stern thatfn or ally the fuel will stand in the trough'6 at a higher level than the lower end of the throttle sleeve when the said sleeve rests upon'the stop 28. When the piston of the motor is on the suction stroke, air will be drawn in through the intake and will pass downward beneath'the lower end of the throttle sleeve and through the fuel in the trough, that is, provided that the throttle is below the level of the fuel in the trough and the air laden with vaporized fuel is drawn up through the casi g 1 into the engine.

When'the throttleis opened the needle valve 14 is also opened, and the connection between the throttle valve and the needle arranged with respectthe milling of tliehead. 25 for holding the set screw against. accidental. displacement.
