A supplemental fuel system includes a supplemental fuel tank, an electronic valve, a voltage sensor, and a controller. The supplemental fuel tank is configured to store a supplemental fuel configured to supplement a primary fuel used by an engine. The electronic valve is configured to be positioned between the supplemental fuel tank and an air supply system for the engine. The voltage sensor is configured to acquire voltage data from a power supply indicative of a voltage of the power supply. The power supply is configured to receive power from an alternator driven by the engine. The controller is configured to control the electronic valve such that the electronic valve is closed in response to the voltage being less than a voltage threshold indicating that the engine is not operating and open/openable in response to the voltage being greater than the voltage threshold indicating that the engine is operating.

A technique for fuel system protection for an internal combustion engine comprises determining direct fuel injector temperature as a function of engine operating parameters; and advancing intake valve timing when the temperature rises above a first predetermined value such that the temperature is maintained below a second predetermined value.

An engine operable in a premixed combustion system and a diffusion combustion system. The engine includes a main fuel injection valve, a pilot fuel injection valve, a liquid fuel tank, a main fuel supply path, a pilot fuel supply path, a pilot fuel filter, a pilot fuel high-pressure pump, a pilot fuel tank, and a pilot fuel supply pump. The pilot fuel tank stores pilot fuel sent from the pilot fuel high-pressure pump and not injected by the pilot fuel injection valve. This pilot fuel is sent to an automatic backwash filter and a pilot fuel filter while not passing through the liquid fuel tank.

A control circuit for a dual fuel generator includes a primary fuel valve to control the supply of a primary fuel, a secondary fuel valve to control the supply of a secondary fuel, a primary fuel pressure switch to detect the primary fuel, a secondary fuel pressure switch to detect the secondary fuel, and a controller.

A gas fuel supply system for supplying the gas fuel via an opening of an intake supply pipe that is connected to a combustion chamber in an engine operable in each of a gas fuel combustion mode and an oil fuel combustion mode includes: the gas fuel supply valve for regulating an amount of the gas fuel, the gas fuel supply valve having plural gas supply holes, from which the gas fuel is fed in a direction toward the opening when the valve is opened; and an opening regulation valve provided between the gas fuel supply valve and the opening and having an opening hole, an opening area of which can be regulated. The gas fuel supply system is configured that extended axes of all the gas supply holes pass through the fully opened opening hole.

A system for the treatment of exhaust gases from an internal combustion engine with a combustion chamber includes an upstream DEF injector disposed to introduce DEF to the combustion chamber and a close-coupled SCR catalyst downstream of and in close-coupled relation to the internal combustion engine. Downstream of the close-coupled SCR catalyst may be a primary SCR catalyst and a primary DEF injector. The system may operate to reduce NO.sub.2 in the close-coupled SCR catalyst during low-load conditions of the internal combustion engine and reduce NO.sub.2 in the primary SCR catalyst during loaded conditions.
