ABSTRACT:
An air intake apparatus for an internal combustion engine includes an air intake manifold that has a plurality of branch pipes that are connected to an internal combustion engine and has a collecting pipe to which a throttle body is connected, in which an air intake quantity that is taken into the internal combustion engine is adjusted using a throttle valve of the throttle body, and in which a fuel injection quantity is adjusted in accordance with the air intake quantity. In this air intake apparatus for an internal combustion engine, an air flow meter that detects a quantity of air that is taken into the internal combustion engine is provided in each branch pipe of an air intake manifold.
