Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for supplying liquid gas as fuel to an internal combustion engine. From the liquid gas stream that is supplied to at least one liquid gas injection valve of the internal combustion engine, a portion is branched off and expanded. The liquid gas stream supplied to the internal combustion engine is cooled with coldness that results during the expansion, thus ensuring that the liquid gas stream supplied to the liquid gas injection valve is at least substantially liquid. The expanded liquid gas is supplied in a vaporous state to the internal combustion engine.

Abstract: An ignition device (22) is positioned in an ignition chamber (21) which in turn is positioned in a prechamber (11) in the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine. A valve controlling flow to and from the ignition chamber is opened to initiate ignition near top dead center of the compression stroke and is closed before the exhaust stroke to trap hot combustion gases in the ignition chamber. Very exacting control of ignition is achieved.
