These have electronic sensors that detect the type of fuel and adjust the engine combustion to match, so users can choose the cheapest available fuel.
Vehicular engine combustion is the major source of air pollution in Quito [ 12, 16, 17].
By using a fuel-cell (I leave the other, combustion-type engines out of this post; the combustion engine is old hat at this point), hydrogen-powered cars mix hydrogen (of all things!) with oxygen to produce electricity (which powers the car) and water (the only exhaust).
In his application Selden described a machine with a gasoline-driven, combustion-type engine that sat in front of the driver; a clutch; a foot brake; a drive shaft; and front-wheel drive.
Radial engine, Type of internal-combustion engine used mainly in small airplanes, in which the cylinders (ranging from five to as many as 28, depending on engine size) are mounted in a circle around the crankshaft, sometimes in banks of two or more.
Stirling engines, unlike internal combustion engines, are engines that generate power by using any type of heat energy source.
The New Yorker, January 19 , 1957P. 22 Talk story about Erik H. Delling, a well-known automotive engineer, who considers the internal-combustion engine "the most unsuitable type of prime mover," & advocates the return to steam engines.

The proposed system combines an SOFC stack with an HCCI-type internal combustion engine; the HCCI engine replaces a conventional combustor, simultaneously burns the anode off-gas, and produces additional power.
