An environmentally clean dual fuel for use in an internal combustion engine, comprising acetylene as a primary fuel and a combustible fuel, such as one or more fluids selected from an alcohol such as ethanol, methanol or any other alcohol or alcohols from the group comprising C1-C20 carbon chains, ethers such as from the group comprising dimethyl ether, diethyl ether, methyl t-butyl ether, ethyl t-butyl ether, t-amyl methyl ether, di-isopropyl ether and the like, low-molecular-weight esters such as from the group comprising methyl formate, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, methyl propionate, ethyl propionate, ethyl malate, and butyl malate, and the like, or other suitable combustible fluid such as mineral spirits and the like, as a secondary fuel for operatively preventing early ignition and knock arising from the primary fuel.

What is claimed and desired to be secured by Letters Patent is as follows: 1. A fuel for introduction into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion system, consisting essentially of a mixture of acetylene and at least one fluid selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic alcohol having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an aliphatic ether having 2 to 6 carbon atoms, an aliphatic ester having 2 to 12 carbon atoms, and combinations thereof, said at least one fluid being approximately 10 percent of said fuel. 2. A fuel for an internal combustion system, comprising a mixture of acetylene and at least one fluid selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic alcohol having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an aliphatic ether having 2 to 6 carbon atoms, an aliphatic ester having 2 to 12 carbon atoms, and combinations thereof, said at least one fluid being approximately 10 percent of fuel. 3. The fuel according to claim 2, wherein said alcohol comprises at least one of methanol, ethanol, and isopropyl alcohol. 4. The fuel according to claim 2, wherein said alcohol includes a compound of the following formula: description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"ROH description="In-line Formulae" end="tail" wherein R is selected from the group consisting of C1-C12 carbon chains. 5. The fuel according to claim 2, wherein said ether comprises at least one of dimethyl ether, diethyl ether, methyl t-butyl ether, ethyl t-butyl ether, t-amyl methyl ether, and di-isopropyl ether. 6. The fuel according to claim 2, wherein said ester comprises at least one of methyl formate, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, methyl propionate, ethyl propionate, ethyl malate, and butyl malate.
