ABSTRACT:
An insert device for smoothing air flow from air filters to carburetors. The device is suitable for turning an air stream from an intake air passageway, which is directed inwardly along a plane from a periphery towards a center to a fuel/air mixing chamber having an annular downwardly flowing mixing passageway with a longitudinal axis at the center. The insert device includes a first end adapted to be operably located concentrically with the annular fuel/air passageway, and a second end opposite the first end. The first and second ends have a central axis extending therebetween. The second end has a center and an upper wall extending outwardly therefrom. A peripheral wall of diminishing outside diameter begins at a point spaced outwardly near the center of the second end and extends smoothly to a point of minimum diameter. From the point of minimum diameter, concave shaped subwalls of slightly increasing size extend downward to the first end. In an alternate embodiment, from the point of minimum diameter, a single peripheral wall of increasing diameter extends to and connects with the first end.
