Tony C Posted November 12, 2002 Share Posted November 12, 2002 All you wanted to know about engines, but were afraid to ask! I came across this website: http://www.howstuffworks.com/category.htm?cat=Eng today and thought it might interest those with less than a full understanding of engine basics. It's American and the animated piston engine doesn't seem to use the modified Otto cycle, but it gives the basic idea. Cam's, gear ratio's, dynamometers - it's all there. Enjoy, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaseb Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 Engine workings were always described to me as Suck, Squeeze, Bang, Blow 😬 Which seems to sum it up quite well I thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
