About this document

Spark Ignition Engine Overview by mmanhar is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Spark ignition engines, used in most automobiles, ignite an air-fuel mixture through a spark plug when the mixture is compressed to high pressures. Compression ignition engines, used in some trucks and trailers, ignite fuel through heat of compression. The main difference between the two is how ignition occurs. Spark ignition engines have four basic combustion chamber designs that influence power and efficiency.
