Gasoline engine is not 'spark'

New combustion technology called GDI Sonex was released earlier this month using the piston carrying flammable chemical compound to replace the spark plug, so the engine can run gasoline, diesel or ethanol. This is the inventor of the company Sonex Research, USA. Diesel engines have high compression ratios without the ignition device (spark plug). However, in reality, the phenomenon of self-detonation is occurring in both gasoline and diesel at low compression ratio. To overcome self-detonation phenomena, the research firm released Sonex piston types can help burn light fuel such as alcohol, gasoline or heavy as diesel fuel without spark plugs. Sonex technology with best performance when the engine is equipped with fuel injection...
