Abstract

A method for fuel injection in a four-stroke combustion engine (1) of piston-and-cylinder type with compression ignition, whereby a specified fuel quantity is supplied to a combustion chamber (2) for each working cycle, and whereby EGR gases are led back to the combustion chamber (2). At least a first portion of said fuel quantity is combined with hot EGR gases for supply to the combustion chamber (2). The invention also relates to a combustion engine working according to the method.
