The piston moves downward in the cylinder creating a vacuum that pulls an air-fuel mix into the combustion chamber. This describes which engine stroke?
exhaust |
|
power |
|
compression |
|
intake |
The four-stroke piston cycle of internal combustion engines starts with the piston at top of the cylinder head (top dead center or TDC) during the intake stroke.
