Why does a two cycle engine require more oil than a 4 cycle engine?

Because a 2 Cycle Engine burns the oil in the gas, and in a 4 cycle engine, it sits in the oil pan, and it isn't supposed to burn it at all.

Does engine require more starting amps hot than cold?
Cold.
How much bigger is the camshaft in a 2-cycle engine than the crankshaft?
There is no camshaft in a 2-cycle engine.
What is better 4 cycle trimmer or 2?
It all depends on you. 4 cycle trimmers do not require mixing of oil and gas. The gas that you use for your lawn mower or tractor is the same gas for your trimmer. They also provide more torque than a 2 cycle trimmer. 2 cycle trimmers require mixing of fuel and gas and are generally lighter in weight than 4 cycle trimmers.
Does a diesel engine require more oxygen than a gasoline engine?
Yes a diesel engine requires a lot more air than a gasoline. The ratio for air to fuel in a gas engine is about 14.7:1. A diesel at idle is about 50:1 and in the higher rpms it can reach 70:1.
Why is more oil required to operate a two cycle engine than a four cycle?
Because with a two cycle engine the oil is burned with the gas mixture, while the four stroke if in good working order will consume little to no oil because it performs its purpose in a bath system. Meaning that it constantly coats the moving parts.
Do machine cycle contain more than one execution cycle?
true
Why a four cycle engine runs cooler than a two cycle engine?
4 Cycle engines have a bigger block = more area to displace heat, they usually run at a slower RPM, and they only fire 1 time to every 4 strokes, and a 2 cycle fires every time the piston comes up.it have water coolent so it cool faster

Why is a hydrogen engine more powerful than a petrol engine?
As hydrogen releases more energy than petrol, H engine is more powerful than petrol .
Why is more oil required to operate a two cylce engine than a four cycle engine?

Does diesel get better gas mileage than regular gasoline?
In general, yes. The diesel engine cycle utilizes much higher compression than a gas engine. And the higher the compression, the more "efficient" the engine- everything else being equal. Also, diesel has more energy (btu) per gallon that gasoline, so you win on two fronts.
Two stroke engines pollute the air more than four stroke engines?
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.
