What is happining in a four storke engine?

OK first you have the 4 strokes which are intake, compression, power, and exhaust. Intake is where the fuel and air are brought into the cylinder. compression is when the cylinder moves up compressing the air and fuel are compressed. power is where the spark plug ignites the fuel and air pushing the cylinder down. and exhaust is when the spent gas and co2 are pushed out of the cylinder. Hope this helps.

Why is the oil coming from exhaust on 85 harley Davidson sportster?

possibly a blown oil ring, pull cy and check rings. ANSWER: Rather then pulling the cylinder, you can do a compression test on both cylinders and compare them to what the factory says they should be at. If you have low compression in one cylinder and oil coming out of the exhaust, most likely then you have a bad oil control ring on the piston.

Why do the spark plugs have indications of oil burning?

first you have to determine if it is oil or fuel if it's oil then do a compression test if it has low compression squirt oil down the cylinder and if it increases then you got leaking rings if that checks out ok then do a cylinder leakage test that way you can tell if it is exhaust intake valve problems
