Abstract

A fuel injection assembly comprising a main structure ( 101 ) for mounting on an internal combustion engine, the main structure having one or more orifices ( 115 ) for injecting fuel directly into the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine, and the main structure also having mounted thereon charge electrodes ( 105, 118 ) positioned to provide an electric field which passes through the flow of fuel, for charging fuel particles to improve atomisation. The main structure also has mounted thereon a spark electrode ( 104 ) adapted to provide a fuel ignition spark for the internal combustion engine. The main structure of the assembly is adapted for removable mounting, having a threaded portion ( 102 ) adapted to co-operate with a threaded aperture in the internal combustion engine, normally adapted to receive a convention spark plug.
