Abstract
A cylinder wall fuel injector is provided with a deflector that causes a fuel spray to be deflected from its normal path directly across a cylinder and perpendicular to a centerline of the cylinder. The deflector is positioned between an opening in the tip of the fuel injector and the cylinder into which the fuel is sprayed. The deflector causes the fuel to be redirected away from a direct line toward the exhaust port of the cylinder.
