ABSTRACT:
An engine system, comprising of a combustion chamber; a first spark plug configured to perform a spark within the combustion chamber, said first plug configured to have a first heat range; a second spark plug configured to produce a spark within the combustion chamber, said second plug configured to have a second heat range different from said first heat range of said first plug; and a delivery system configured to deliver a hydrocarbon fuel and a fluid including an alcohol to the combustion chamber in varying resulting ratios.
