1. A method of increasing efficiency and reducing emissions of a compression ignition engine having an air intake passageway and a fuel injector separate from said air intake passageway comprising introducing water droplets, predominately of negatively charged water, through said air intake passageway of said compression ignition engine, enabling the water droplets to arrive at the bottom of a compression stroke, said water droplets having a negative charge density that is high enough to effectively produce an increase in engine efficiency. |
