Abstract: A compression ignited combustion engine has at least one cylinder and first and second gas intake ports in a cylinder head restricting a combustion chamber. One gas intake passage leads to the two ports and is widened in a Y-shaped end influencing gas entering each port into a tangential flow in opposite direction with respect to the flow into the other port. The first intake port is designed to allow gas entering this port to continue said tangential flow so as to enter the combustion chamber in a swirl in a first rotation direction, whereas the second intake port is designed to guide gas entering this port to also enter the combustion chamber in a swirl in said first rotation direction.
