Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for forming an air-fuel mixture in a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. In one example, a system may include an adjustable intake line coupled to an inlet opening of the cylinder. The system may adjust turbulence formed in the cylinder in response to engine operating conditions by controlling a pivoting angle between a first section of the intake line and a second section of the intake line.
