Can be either
The two-stroke diesel engine was developed by Rudolf Diesel, the inventor of the diesel engine itself. Diesel patented his design in 1892, which utilized a compression ignition system. While the concept of two-stroke engines existed prior, Diesel's work significantly advanced the technology for diesel engines, including the two-stroke variant.
Two stroke engines will create a lot of visible smoke pollution and also more noise than four stroke engines. For these reason, many countries have required that all new motorcycles should be four-stroke.
A two stroke engine has half the strokes of an otto (or four stroke) engine, therefore it takes two crankshaft roatations to complete a cycle on a four stroke engine and only one revolution in a two stroke engine. There are several types of two stroke engines, the different types have to do with how the receive the air/fuel mixture, also you have two stroke diesel engines.

The C classification of oil is for diesel engines.
GM did make 2 stroke diesel engines used in trucks and busses..they were noisy, requierd a super charger to run, loved to drink but very powerful.
It could be anything. The difference between the two is that in a two-stroke engine the piston goes back and forth (two strokes) for every ignition event (spark plug firing for a gas engine or fuel injection for a Diesel), while it goes back and forth twice (four strokes) for a four stroke engine.
Dietroit Diesel
Detroit diesel engine is an example of two stroke engine
four
depends if it is a two stroke or four. a two stroke will not be a four stroke may i am not sure
suction stroke and exhaust strokes are the two strokes involved in 2 stroke engine....
