  • Patent number: 4319552
    Abstract: Sparkplug means for an internal combustion engine are provided with conduits to introduce pre-combustion gases directly to a mixing area adjacent the sparking electrodes. This may be by connecting the conduits into the plug directly or by connecting them into an adapter to be interposed between the engine and the sparkplug, and providing a pre-combustion chamber therebetween. Preferably there is a mixing area upstream of the electrodes. An electrolyzer can be built into the arrangement to generate the pre-combustion gases immediately adjacent the sparkplug.
