Abstract:
Means for mounting one or more bottom fed, side ejecting gaseous solenoid fuel injectors to the air inlet or throttle body of an engine, whereby a simple method of adding digitally controlled gaseous fuel metering is relatively easily accomplished, comprising:(a) a rigid, rectangular shaped fuel injector supply manifold attachable to the air cleaner or inlet ducting of an engine which contains one or more threaded holes for mounting each injector and a plurality of conduits in communication with said injectors for supplying, metering and transferring fuel to (b) one or more tubes, each communicating with the ejection port of a fuel injector and extending through said air cleaner or inlet ducting to a point in the inlet air flow where fuel is ejected in a manner which achieves optimum fuel-air mixing and flow rate, including (c) one or more said tubes communicating with an injector dedicated to directing fuel to the inlet of a throttle valve bypassing air conduit for the purpose of metering fuel to an engine when the throttle is closed.
