In certain embodiments, a two-stage precombustion chamber may be used to reduce engine NOx levels, with fueled precombustion chambers, while maintaining comparable engine power output and thermal efficiency. One or more fuel admission points may be located in either the first prechamber stage or the second prechamber stage. A more efficient overall combustion characterized by low levels of NOx formation may be achieved by a two-stage precombustion chamber system while generating very high energy flame jets emerging from the second prechamber stage into the main combustion chamber. A first prechamber stage may be substantially smaller than a second prechamber stage. The volumes and aspect ratios of the two prechamber stages, along with the location of the electrodes within the first stage prechamber, the holes patterns, angles and the separate fueling, may be selected to create a distribution of fuel concentration that is substantially higher in the first stage prechamber compared to the second prechamber stage.
