ABSTRACT:
An internal combustion engine inlet manifold comprises upper and lower castings which together define a plenum and a vacuum reservoir separated by a common dividing wall. Inlet tracts connect the plenum to an engine to be supplied with air and an inlet port connects the plenum to atmosphere through a variable throttle. The reservoir includes an outlet port for connection of the reservoir to a device requiring a source of vacuum and is connected to the plenum by means of a one way flow valve operable to permit the egress of air from the reservoir when the pressure in the plenum is lower than that subsisting in the reservoir but to prevent the flow of air from the plenum to the reservoir when the pressure in the plenum is higher than that subsisting in the reservoir.
