A carburetor for a two-stroke internal combustion engine whereby airtightness is maintained and intake of uncombusted fuel into an air path is prevented. The carburetor includes a circular cylindrical valve hole and a rotary valve fitted into the valve hole such that it can rotate and is disposed perpendicularly across a fuel intake path and an air intake path which are formed substantially parallel with respect to each other, and a fuel supply-side bore which controls the flow rate along the fuel intake path and the air supply-side bore which controls the air capacity along the air path pass through part of the cylindrical portion perpendicularly to the axial direction of the rotary valve, and annular recesses formed in part of a circumferential wall of an outer circumference of the rotary valve so as not to correspond to at least the fuel supply-side bore and the air supply-side bore.

A carburetor including a one piece choke valve and shaft assembly including a shaft, a detent plate formed on a first end, a lever arm formed on a second end, a pair of opposing collars formed adjacent the detent plate and lever arm, a valve plate centrally positioned on the shaft, and opposing splines formed on the shaft enabling it to be inserted through an assembly slot cut into a shaft bore in the carburetor body. The detent plate includes a partial annular slot encompassing the angular range of travel of the choke valve. First, second and third detent pockets are formed along an outer edge of the slot. A positive positioning pin engages or interacts with the detent plate to positively position the choke valve in first, second or third angular positions corresponding to close choke, half choke and open choke.
