Abstract

A combustion engine with direct injection has in each cylinder a fuel injector (3) whose fuel orifices (4) are so oriented that the projection (5′) of the direction of each fuel spray, viewed in a plane perpendicular to the cylinder centerline, crosses a projection (8′, 8″, 9′, 9″) in the same plane of the valve disc of one of the valves.
