- the fuel is injected into the transfer port of the said respective power cylinder during the transfer phase and at low load and or speed, it is mostly injected after the exhaust valve of that power cylinder has closed.
- the alternative design or mode for carrying out the invention has two units which are set in a V configuration and with each said unit being one bank of

- a turbocharger 41 is positioned in the middle of the said V with the exhaust manifolds 23 of all power cylinders communicating thereto whilst the exhaust, ports 23 and manifolds 23 share the same number.
- the pressurised intake manifold 42 leading from the turbocharger 41 communicates with the intake ports of both pumping cylinders whilst the crankcase intake ports 33 of both pumping cylinders is naturally aspirated.
- a single power crankshaft 1 causes reciprocation of all power pistons whilsteach pumping cylinder 5 has its own pumping crankshaft 2.

- the said pumping camshaft has single camlobes actuating the intake valves with the said diameter difference of the relevant gears providing for the increased cyclic velocity of the intake valves.
- the intake valves 12 begin to open when the pumping piston moves through to seventy pumping CA degrees after TDC. This allows the compressed intake air from the previous cycle to expand substantially to the pressure of the intake manifold before it opens. With the intake valves 12 opened and the pumping piston moving towards its BDC position, the intake air is induced into the pumping cylinder 5. Whilst the said piston 16 is moving towards BDC, the intake air within the crankcase is compressed.
- crankcase intake valves 32 One of the transfer valves opens when the pumping piston is at its BDC positon, to initiate thetransfer phase to the respective power cylinder which the said transfer valve opens into. The said transfer valve then remains open untill the pumping piston has moved to ten said CA degrees after TDC and which is the same as that shown in FIG 6 and being forty five power CA degrees before the piston of the said respective power cylinder reaches TDC.

- the secondary valve thereof is open providing for the scavenging of the exhaust gases from the combustion chamber thereof.
- the said secondary valve closes when the piston of that respective power cylinder has moved to one hundred and fifteen power CA degrees before TDC.
- the exhaust valve of the said respective power cylinder is open and closes when the piston thereof has moved to forty five power CA degrees before TDC, allowing for nearly all the exhaust gas to be scavenged from the said cylinder except for a small residual portion thereof remaining. This is retained to highly pressurise the remaining gas so that when the secondary valve reopens when the piston thereof is at five power CA degrees before TDC, the pressure in the power cylinder is not significantly lower than that of the combustion chamber thereof which would decrease the thermal efficiency attainable.
- diesel type fuel is injected into the said
- combustion chamber which results in combustion occuring just after the said relevant transfer valve has closed and so that as the said secondary valve thereof is opened, about fifty percent or more of the combustible mass has been combusted.
- the alternative V configuration of FIG 7 has two units being in the said configuration with each said unit being one bank of cylinders for the said engine whilst the pumping cylinders 5 thereof are located to the inside of the said V, and of the power cylinders.
- a single pumping crankshaft 2 causes
