A cooling structure for an internal combustion engine includes a spacer. The spacer is fitted inside a water jacket which is formed to surround peripheries of a plurality of cylinder bores arranged one after another on a cylinder row line of a cylinder block of the internal combustion engine. A cooling condition of the cylinder bores is controlled by regulating a flow of cooling water in the water jacket by use of the spacer. A fixing member for fixing the spacer inside the water jacket is provided on an inner wall surface of the spacer facing the cylinder bores.

Volumetric efficiency is reduced in a premixed gaseous fuel engine compared to a premixed liquid fuel engine. An improved method for operating an internal combustion engine and improving volumetric efficiency comprises storing a gaseous fuel in a liquid state; determining a load on the internal combustion engine as a function of engine operating conditions; determining a target temperature for the gaseous fuel that reduces the likelihood of pre-ignition and knock as a function of the load; and controlling the amount of heat transferred to the gaseous fuel to convert it to one of a gas state and a supercritical state, such that the gaseous fuel is introduced into the internal combustion engine at the target temperature.
