In an internal combustion engine, gaseous fuel is injected in a first injection through a pre-combustion chamber into the combustion chamber to mix with air in the combustion chamber. The pre-combustion chamber has a jet aperture in fluid communication between the pre-combustion chamber and the combustion chamber. Mixed gaseous fuel and air is then ingested into the pre-combustion chamber from the combustion chamber and ignited. In a second injection, injecting gaseous fuel into the pre-combustion chamber and expelling, with the second injection, ignited gaseous fuel and air from the pre-combustion chamber through the jet aperture and into the combustion chamber as a flaming jet with a core of gaseous fuel.

The method of claim 2, where the quantity of gaseous fuel injected in the first injection is larger than injected in the third injection, and the quantity of fuel injected in the third injection is larger than injected in the second injection. 4. The method of claim 2, where the internal combustion engine is a reciprocating engine comprising a piston in the combustion chamber, and where injecting, in the third injection, gaseous fuel comprises injecting, in the third injection, gaseous fuel after the piston has passed compression top dead center. 5.

The method of claim 1, where the flaming jet is diffusion combustion. 10. The method of claim 1, where injecting, in a first injection, gaseous fuel into the internal combustion engine comprises injecting, in a first injection, gaseous fuel through the pre-combustion chamber into the internal combustion engine. 11. A system, comprising: an engine fuel injector-igniter assembly adapted for installation to an engine in fluid communication with a combustion chamber of the engine, the injector-igniter assembly comprising an enclosure defining a pre-combustion chamber enclosing an outlet of a gaseous fuel injector and an igniter and comprising a jet aperture in fluid communication between the interior of the pre-combustion chamber and the exterior of the pre-combustion chamber;a controller adapted to communicatively couple to the injector-igniter assembly, the controller adapted to: signal the injector-igniter assembly to inject a first injection of gaseous fuel through the pre-combustion chamber into the combustion chamber via the jet aperture;after the first injection, signal the injector-igniter assembly to ignite, in the pre-combustion chamber, mixed gaseous fuel and air ingested into the pre-combustion chamber from the combustion chamber; andafter the ignition, signal the injector-igniter assembly to inject a second injection of gaseous fuel into the pre-combustion chamber and expel, with the second injection, ignited gaseous fuel and air from the pre-combustion chamber through the jet aperture and into the combustion chamber as a flaming jet with a core of gaseous fuel. 12. The system of claim 11, where the controller is further adapted to signal the injector-igniter assembly to inject a third injection of gaseous fuel into the pre-combustion chamber, the third injection being a smaller quantity of fuel than the first injection and a greater quantity of fuel than the second injection. 13. The system of claim 12, where the controller is adapted to signal the injector-igniter assembly to inject the first injection and second injection of gaseous fuel before compression top dead center and the third injection of gaseous fuel after top dead center. 14. The system of claim 12, where the controller is adapted to inject all the fuel injected into the engine during a cycle in the first, second and third injections. 15. The system of claim 11, where the injector-igniter assembly is generally elongate and the enclosure comprises a plurality of jet apertures, and where at least one of the jet apertures is oriented laterally and one of the jet apertures is oriented axially. 16. The system of claim 11, where the enclosure defines an axial interior passage extending from a jet aperture to the remainder of the pre-combustion chamber, where the greatest transverse dimension of the passage is smaller than the greatest transverse dimension of the remainder of the pre-combustion chamber. 17. A method, comprising: injecting gaseous fuel into an engine to mix with air in a main combustion chamber of the engine;after the injecting, igniting, in a pre-combustion chamber, mixed gaseous fuel and air ingested into the pre-combustion chamber from the main combustion chamber; andafter the igniting, injecting gaseous fuel into the pre-combustion chamber forming a flaming jet with a core of gaseous fuel in the main combustion chamber. 18. The method of claim 16, comprising injecting gaseous fuel into the pre-combustion chamber to compete the total fuel charge supplied to the combustion chamber in a cycle of the engine. 19. The method of claim 18, where injecting gaseous fuel into the pre-combustion chamber forming a flaming jet with a core of gaseous fuel in the main combustion chamber comprises injecting less gaseous fuel than in the first mentioned injecting.
