The two-stroke gasoline engine was once a marvel of engineering, offering up huge doses of power in small and lightweight packages. Unfortunately, gas two-strokes also burn oil by design, making them ...

The 1958 DKW 3=6 looked like a modest family saloon, but its engineering was a quiet rebellion against four-stroke orthodoxy.

Traditional Two-Stroke Engine Issues A traditional two-stroke engine has the piston pushing down after firing, moving past an exhaust port and allowing the exhaust gases to leave the chamber.

One of the most significant contributions in the history of propulsion technology came from a 19th-century engineer named Rudolf Diesel. While his idea was patented in the 1890s, it wouldn't be until ...

What if the engine of the future wasn’t just a dream, but a reality? Imagine a power source that combines the raw, exhilarating performance of a two-stroke engine with innovative efficiency, ...

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 ...
