With a four stroke engine the ignition timing is set at towards the end of the compression stroke. A novice make make the mistake of setting it at the end of the exhaust stroke.

So yes it is possible. However the engine will not run.

Why does 2 stroke engine cycle is less versatile than 4 stroke?

Because is giving you higher torch on a very short time, comparing with 4 stroke.


Why do 2 cycle engines run hotter than 4 cycle?

A two stroke engine fires (an explosion in the motor) twice as often as a four stroke. A stroke is every time the piston in the engine changes direction. (From up to down) A two stroke engine fires every time the piston comes to the top where a four stroke will fire every other time. So if two single cylinder engines are running at 1,000 RPMs a two stroke will fire 1,000 times a four stroke will fire only 500 times. With twice as many explosions it will be hotter.

Why does a four stroke engine run cooler than a 2 stroke engine?

A four-stroke engine runs cooler than a two-stroke engine primarily because it has a more efficient cooling system due to its longer cycle, which allows for more complete combustion and better heat dissipation. In a four-stroke engine, the intake, compression, power, and exhaust strokes are separated, giving more time for heat to escape during the exhaust stroke. In contrast, a two-stroke engine fires once every revolution, leading to less time for heat to dissipate and often resulting in higher operating temperatures. Additionally, two-stroke engines typically mix oil with fuel for lubrication, which can also contribute to increased heat generation.


The burning air-fuel mixture forces the piston down on what stroke?

Depends on if this engine is a 2 stroke, 4 stroke, or rotary engine. I assume you are referring to a 4 stroke as found in the vast majority of automobiles built today. The answer is, At the top of the compression stroke. The 4 strokes of a 4 cycle engine are:# intake/induction stroke # compression stroke # power stroke # exhaust strokeDepends on if this engine is a 2 stroke, 4 stroke, or rotary engine.

Why 2 stroke engine want mixture of petrol and oil?

because, unlike a 4 stroke it doesn't have engine oil lubricating all the engine components, so in the fuel mixture there is oil mixed in to do this job, it is not as effective as the 4 stroke idea though.... which is usually why 2 stroke engines wear and tear more of time .
