An internal combustion engine having banks of oppositely disposed cylinders is disclosed having a rotary valve for each bank which directs the flow to supply the inlet air and to dispose to the exhaust gases. Each of the rotary valves can be liquid cooled and is synchronized to time the inlet and exhaust gas to and from the proper cylinders. A fuel injection system provides the fuel to stratify its change. The fuel supply to any cylinder can be controlled or terminated during the low power requirement of the engine, such as when the engine is operating at reduced power or when the engine is idling. The engine can be built in any number of cylinders, but the four and eight cylinder combination makes for the most compact design. |
