In an engine system wherein the engine coolant is permitted to boil and the gaseous coolant used as a vehicle for removing heat from the engine, a heating jacket associated with the induction conduit of the engine is supplied with gaseous coolant via a control valve during cold engine starts and during modes of engine operation wherein it is advantageous from the view point of fuel economy to raise the temperature of the engine and/or the incoming fuel charge. The supply is terminated under other modes of operation to avoid heating the incoming charge and reducing charging efficiency.
