Which effect reliably follows when liquid fuel enters the combustion chamber *after* the piston reaches top dead center in a high-performance engine?

💡 Explanation

Increased unburnt hydrocarbon emissions occur because *wall wetting* leaves fuel uncombusted on cold cylinder walls. Therefore, emissions increase, rather than efficiency improvements arising from complete combustion under ideal stoichiometric conditions typically achieved with timed injection.
