A modified Stirling cycle type engine (10) includes a pair of cylinders (12,14) in which pistons (16,18) are reciprocably mounted to define a hot and cold side to the engine, a passageway (30) interconnecting the cylinders (12,14) and a regenerator (32) and a cooler (34) in the passageway (30). Exhaust and intake valves (50,54) permit exhaust of working fluid from and supply of fresh air to the hot side. A fuel injector (38) and fuel igniting means (36) are provided for injecting fuel into the passageway (30) adjacent the hot side for admixture with working fluid passing therethrough and ignition within the hot side cylinder (12).
