Effect of Ignition Timing on Fuel Consumption and Emissions of a Dual Chamber Spark Ignition Engine

Fuel consumption and emissions from a dual chamber, stratified charge, spark ignition engine with different ignition timing were investigated. Retarded ignition, relative to MBT timing, yielded poorer fuel consumption, especially with lean mixtures. The poorer combustion associated with the late bu...
