Abstract: The dual fuel supply system for an internal combustion engine has a carburetor including a fuel/air induction passage having means defining a low pressure zone and a secondary orifice and further including a cavity communicating with the fuel induction passage through the secondary orifice. A first or primary fuel supply includes a first float bowl connected to a source of a primary fuel, such as kerosene, a first float controlled valve operable to control the supply of the primary fuel to the first float bowl, a fuel nozzle for supplying the primary fuel from the first float bowl to the low pressure zone, and a conduit connecting the first float bowl in communication with the carburetor cavity. The second or secondary fuel supply includes a second float bowl communicable with the carburetor cavity and connected to a source of a second or secondary fuel, such as gasoline, and a second float controlled valve operable to control the supply of the secondary fuel to the second float bowl.

Abstract: A system for priming and temporarily enriching the air/fuel mixture for a crankcase scavenged, two-cycle engine having a fuel pump supplying fuel to a carburetor for mixture with air for delivery to an induction manifold leading to the engine crankcase where it is compressed and transferred to the cyclinder combustion chamber through a passage, the system includes a solenoid valve controlled by a switch so the valve opens when the switch is turned on to start the engine. The valve inlet is connected to the fuel pump. The valve outlet is connected to a conduit means which is connected to the transfer passage to inject fuel to prime the engine. The valve outlet is also connected to a conduit connected to the induction manifold to enrich the air/fuel mixture therein. The fuel in conduits is drawn into the manifold after said valve closes to thereby enrich the air/fuel mixture long enough for the engine to warm up.
