The influence of the addition of hydrogen and of a synthesis 
gas on the basic parameters of combustion of gasoline-air fuel 
mixtures is investigated theoretically. The possibility of feeding 
gasoline internal combustion engines with lean fuel mixtures with 
a concentration of 5-10 vol.% hydrogen is shown; this will greatly 
improve their ecological purity.
