Stroke and Its Operation
Intake: the piston descends, the intake valve opens and this allows the
air and gasoline mixture to enter the cylinder. Meanwhile, the exhaust
valve is closed.
Compression: the piston rises and the intake valve closes. Because
the exhaust also remains closed, the piston compresses the mixture of
air and fuel.
Explosion: The piston reaches the maximum of its travel. Then the
spark plug produces an electric spark that gives way to the explosion,
so the piston is driven down.
Exhaust: The piston rises again, but the exhaust valve is no longer
closed: it opens to allow the burned gases to escape.
