Question

How does an engine work?

Answer 1

The engine consists of a fixed cylinder and a moving piston. The expanding combustion gases push the piston, which in turn rotates the crankshaft. ... After the piston compresses the fuel-air mixture, the spark ignites it, causing combustion. The expansion of the combustion gases pushes the piston during the power stroke.

Answer 2

an internal combustion engine works by combination air fuel and spark all at the right time as well as compression to cause an explosion and push the piston back down and spin the crank shaft wich goes to output
