To avoid the high HC emission due to the short-circuiting effet of a two-stroke cycle engine, a modified stratified-scavenging two-stoke cycle engine were designed and studied. The performance of the stratified-scavenging engine was just a little lower than the original one. However, the brake specific fuel consumption and exhaust emission were drastically improved. It was possible to lower the brake specific fuel consumption by 10-20%, carbon monoxide by 40-90%, and hydrocarbon by 20-30%. The exhaust emissions are much lower than the requirement of regulation.
