Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1559899A2] A Carbureted two-cycle engine including an intake channel, a choke valve in the intake channel fixed to a pivotable choke valve shaft and lever, and a throttle valve in the intake channel fixed to a pivotable throttle valve shaft and lever. The engine includes an air channel in communication with fresh air, and an air valve fixed to a pivotable air valve shaft and lever. A piston within a cylinder of the engine includes a transfer port for intermittently connecting the intake channel and the air channel with a combustion chamber. An activating lever pivotably mounted to the air valve shaft transmits movement of the throttle lever to the air valve lever after a predetermined angle of rotation of the throttle lever. A fast idle latch is engagable by the choke lever to hold the throttle lever in a fast idle position until the throttle lever is separately moved.
