Abstract

See full text

An air intake assembly for a golf cart engine provides an air inlet port in a passenger compartment shielded from road dust for introducing clean air for combustion into the carburetor located in the rear mount engine compartment, as connected by flexible air flow tubing. A special choke mechanism located in the passenger compartment eliminates the need for a butterfly valve in the carburetor and the need for a choke cable extending between the two compartments. Thus, choking is achieved by manually operating a biased open valve in the form of a cover cap on the air inlet port to restrict air inlet flow at a convenient location in the passenger compartment, rather than by a complex and critical butterfly assembly in the carburetor connected by a cable to a driver accessible location. The air inlet mount includes an intake air tuned silencer to remove audio frequency intake noises.
