PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a uniform premix compressed self-ignition engine capable of controlling ignition timing. SOLUTION: The uniform premix compressed self-ignition engine has a plasma generating section 102 to generate plasma equal to or less than minimum ignition energy within an engine cylinder, a microwave irradiation section 104 to irradiate microwaves onto the plasma, a controller 106 to send an oscillation signal to the microwave irradiation section 104 and the plasma generating section 102, and an ignition timing signal transmitting device 108 to send an ignition timing signal to the controller 106. The controller 106 generates the plasma within the cylinder by performing generation of the plasma and irradiation of microwaves at specified timing prior to the ignition timing indicated by the ignition timing signal.
