ABSTRACT:
A gaseous fuel and air mixing venturi device adapted for retrofitting in a carburetor has a venturi body with a passage for air flow through the body, the passage having a throat of reduced cross-sectional area. The body has an axial fuel inlet port at a first end and fuel supply ports connected to the fuel inlet port and spaced around the throat for supplying fuel to the air flow passage for mixing with air flowing through the passage. The first end of the venturi body has mating seating formations for seating against corresponding seating surfaces of a gaseous fuel carburetor after removal of a spring mass air/fuel mixing section, and a fastener mechanism for releasably securing the venturi body in the carburetor, with the fuel supply port of the carburetor connected to the fuel inlet port of the venturi body.
