Understanding Internal Combustion Engines by api-509827005 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
An internal combustion engine uses a combination of fuel and electricity to create rotary motion. Most engines use small, contained explosions of gasoline in a chamber to move pistons up and down, which generates power. Specifically, air and gasoline are pulled into the combustion chamber on the downward piston stroke. On the upward stroke, the spark plug ignites the mixture, causing an explosion that pushes the piston back down. The exhaust gases are then released on the downward stroke through the exhaust
