A mounting arrangement for an accelerator pump and a choke actuation mechanism, which are used in conjunction with a plurality of charge formers, minimizes the girth of the engine while making these components more accessible and easing assembly. An actuator and a choke solenoid of the choke actuation system are mounted proximate to one another and partially between adjacent induction pipes of an induction system. This position allows these components to be located on an exterior side of the induction system without interfering with the protective cowling of the motor. The accelerator pump is mounted at the end of a series of charge formers, proximate to a throttle linkage which controls throttling devices of the charge formers. This position of the accelerator pump eases the installation of this component without increasing the girth of the engine.
An internal combustion engine having a plurality of charge formers which produce a fuel charge delivered to combustion chambers of said engine, said engine further comprising an accelerator pump which produces pulses of pressurized fluid upon actuation, and a plurality of conduits which place said accelerator pump in communication with said charge formers in a manner which directs said pulse of pressurized fluid to each of said charge formers to discharge additional fuel in each charge former upon actuation of said accelerator pump.
