A fuel treatment device for an internal combustion engine includes a casing 17 which contains a treatment medium such as a filter element 18. Water collects in a space 22 in the casing and is drawn from the space through a tube 24 connected to the throat 23 of a venturi, by the flow of air through the venturi. The air flow is produced by connecting the venturi across the air filter 16 in the air intake line of the engine. As shown, a float- operated switch controls valve 27 to actuate the venturi when water accumulates. In Fig. 2 (not shown) the venturi is permanently connected to the air line, but a float-operated valve opens and closes the lower end of tube 24. <IMAGE> |
