A timeable fluid feed mechanism for feeding or injecting combustible vapors into an internal combustion engine, primarily compression ignition. The mechanism includes a rotating disk with a cavity that passes repeatedly and consecutively over a fuel inlet pipe, cylinder, piston crown, vent pipes, and then again over the fuel inlet pipe. Combustion occurs when fluid in the cavity is exposed to the cylinder and mixes with the other fluid in the cylinder. Timing is accomplished by the axially located driving shaft with angled splined gears meshing with angled splined gears in the disk. Axial movement of the shaft causes the disk and its fluid feed cavity to change position relative to the shaft, thereby changing timing. The features of a nonrotating axial motion input to the injector disk drive shaft, ease of operation, and a curved leading edge of the injector cavity improve combustion. Power input to the rotatable disk shaft is over a suitable length of the shaft to avoid moving the power input gears axially.
