ABSTRACT:
A vapor regulating valve for use in a system for mixing air with fuel vapor from a fuel tank is constructed so that fuel vapor pressure against a diaphragm actuates a valve to allow engine induction vacuum to be exerted against another diaphragm to actuate a metering valve to accurately mix air and fuel vapor for delivery to the engine intake manifold. The full on-and-off action of the metering valve ensures a consistantly accurate air fuel ratio; and the use of the diaphragms themselves as the moving valve elements results in less expense and greater reliability.
