Name a type of terrain, and someone, somewhere, will figure out a way to race on it. From wood-track ovals and countryside rallies to the pure chaos of the Gumball 3000, humans love to pit themselves ...
How hard could it to be to build a two-stroke internal combustion engine (ICE) from scratch? This is a challenge that [Camden Bowen] gladly set for himself, while foregoing such obvious wastes of time ...
You'd think measuring an engine's displacement would be simple, but there's a long history of trying to figure out how to categorize the Wankel.
It looks like GM is working on modernising two-stroke engines by tackling their emissions problem. This could open a whole new chapter for internal combustion. It’s been a while since two-stroke ...
Unless you're really into dirt bikes, you probably haven't touched a two-stroke engine in decades — if you ever have. These mechanically simple motors combine the four strokes we all know and love ...
You may have heard your car has a four-stroke engine, but you're not sure what that means. Why are there four? And what is a stroke, anyway? A modern gas engine most commonly uses pistons and a ...

QUESTION: What was the last car to have a two-stroke engine? As strict Western emissions standards were developed, two-stroke models were phased out. However, this was not the case in the Eastern Bloc ...
Anyone who appreciates simplicity of design and efficiency of operation has to like small two-stroke-cycle engines that power construction tools such as cut-off saws, rammers and breakers. Producing ...
