New idea - eliminate the spark plug

[See previous new idea]

Eliminate the spark plug, save 20% of the gas:

Powering a new generation of cars

From the article: I must admit that the spark plug seemed essential to me. I always find it interesting when a new idea takes something essential like that and throws it out the window.

Comments:
It uses regular gasoline versus diesel. I seems that it uses a computer controlled heating and compression system to make the regular fuel combust w/o an ignition source.

I guess this will be a benefit when everyone buys a diesel vehicle and the price of it's fuel goes up due to demand.
