The suction created by the descending piston sucks the fuel/air mix through the carburettor.
No it isn't fatal, but it would smoke quite a bit, because a two stroke engine needs two stroke oil mixed in the petrol, and a four stroke just needs petrol.
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.
In a two-stroke reed valve engine the reed valve is used to seal the fuel air mixture in the crankcase.
Yes, two stroke (or Two cycle) engines have oil that is mixed into the fuel to lubricate the motor's moving parts. Where as, in a 4 stroke engine the oil is separate from the fuel. When the fuel oil mix is burned in a two cycle engine more pollution is given off.
When comparing to a two-stroke engine, the four-stroke engine has the following advantages.Fewer emissions. Since the crankshaft has its own oil reservoir there is no need to add oil to the fuel, meaning there is no oil burned in the fuel.Better fuel consumption. The four-stroke engine complete a full cycle in four-stroke. This gives it greater control over which ports open at which times. On a two stroke engine, fuel and air is being forced into the cylinder while exhaust is being forced out, this causes some fuel and air to flow directly through the cylinder and out the exhaust. Four-stroke engines are also directly fuel injected which allows greater control over fuel delivery.Longevity. The four-stroke engine has a lower power to weight ratio than the four-stroke engine. In this respect, the engine components aren't pushed as hard as a two-stroke. This allows them to last longer.
Four-stroke engines have a spout where you add oil to the engine. On two-stroke engines, oil has to be added to the fuel. (Four-stroke and two-stroke are also called four-cycle and two-cycle, respectively).
you have to have a carburettor to mix the air and fuel correctly in order for the engine to run
The correct ratio for that particular snowblower engine is 50 parts fuel to 1 part two-stroke engine oil.
Two stroke fuel uses the same gasoline but has had oil added to lubricate the internal engine parts of a 2 stroke engine which does not have oil in a sump to lubricate the engine like a 4 stroke. If you put this mix into a 4 stroke engine it will make a great deal of smoke and foul the spark plug, causing the engine to stop running. No permanent damage but definitely not recommended.
The best way to know if an engine is 2-stroke or 4-stroke, is to look for an oil spout. If the engine has an oil spout where oil has to be poured into, it is a 4-stroke. If the engine has no oil spout and the oil has to be added to the fuel, then it is a 2-stroke.
external cooling and with fuel
In my point of view two stroke engine is the best engine ,because in two stroke engine there are only two stages or two stroke .In which one stage complete the two process frist is suction & second one is compression ,in these two process completes in one stage. The best advantage of this engine is the in every cycle there is a power stroke due to which the engine performance is very good . But the biggest disadvantage is the fuel consumption . Which after some time reduced by the resarcheres.
