ABSTRACT:
A combustion enhancing insert for a cylinder of an internal combustion engine having a body shaped for insertion into the cylinder so as to partially occupy the squish area of the cylinder as well as the crevice area of the cylinder. The combustion enhancing insert also occupies part of the combustion area but does not interfere with valve flow. The combustion enhancing insert can be attached to the cylinder head, cylinder wall or made as part of the head gasket and can be formed as part of the cylinder inserted as a retrofit. The present invention will reduce the amount of unburned combustion gases collecting in the squish area and crevice area. Also, the compression ratio will be increased. This will result in better fuel efficiency with less deposits and emissions.
