The gas engine of the present invention has a pilot oil fuel valve, a pilot oil pump, and first and second pipes connected to a pilot oil main pipe, for each of a plurality of combustion chambers. An operating pilot oil tank and an ignition stimulant-added pilot oil tank are connected via a switching valve to a third pipe, connected to an end of the pilot oil main pipe. Before operating stops, the pilot oil is discharged by opening an exhaust valve, and thereafter, the switching valve is switched and pilot oil which the ignition stimulant has been added to is supplied into the pipe. Consequently, the pilot oil downstream from the main pipe is replaced with the pilot oil which the ignition stimulant has been added to. Therefore, at the time of the next activation, pilot oil which the ignition stimulant has been added to is sprayed from the fuel valve, and, as a result, misfire at the time of activation is reduced, and a highly reliable engine is obtained.
A pilot oil ignition type gas engine having a pilot oil fuel valve provided in a combustion chamber, an operating pilot oil tank, and a pipe section which connects the pilot oil fuel valve to the operating pilot oil tank, the pilot oil ignition type gas engine being compression-ignited by pilot oil sprayed from the pilot oil fuel valve into the combustion chamber;
A pilot oil ignition type gas engine having a plurality of pilot oil combustion valves provided in a plurality of combustion chambers, a plurality of pilot oil pumps provided to each of the pilot oil combustion valves, a plurality of first pipes which connect the pilot oil combustion valves with the corresponding pilot oil pumps, a pilot oil main pipe, a plurality of second pipes which connect the pilot oil pumps to the pilot oil main pipe, an operating pilot oil tank, and a pipe which connects an end of the pilot oil main pipe to the operating pilot oil tank;
A pilot oil ignition type gas engine, comprising:
