Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for air and fuel delivery within a pre-chamber. In one example, an engine pre-combustion chamber comprises a first chamber portion centered along a first axis, and a second chamber portion joined to the first chamber portion and centered along a second axis arranged at an angle to the first axis. In this way, wall wetting may be decreased while favorable charge motion for robust ignition may be increased.
