Lesson for the Day


A few weeks ago I was trying to explain to someone the difference between 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines after he asked why 2-stroke smoke. It was hard. I tried to draw pictures but don't think I did very well. (My own limited understanding probably played a part there...)

Got this great lesson on a recent Sideburn post. Check the post for more details, but here are two great images that tell a thousand words:


4-stroke



2-stroke

Never understood the need/function of an expansion box on a 2-stroke before this. Thanks MP.

2-smoke or 4-poke?
