A hotter plug can be beneficial in a two-stroke engine, particularly if the engine is running rich or in colder conditions, as it helps prevent fouling by promoting better combustion. However, using a plug that is too hot may lead to pre-ignition or detonation, potentially damaging the engine. It's essential to match the spark plug heat range to the engine's specific requirements and operating conditions for optimal performance. Always refer to the manufacturer's recommendations for the best results.

In which stroke of a four-stroke engine does a spark plug ignite the gas?

On the third stroke. 1-Intake stroke. 2-Compression stroke. 3-Power stroke (spark) 4-Exhaust stroke.


Is there any 3 stroke engine?

No. How could there be? The "stroke" of an engine is the piston going up or down. If the spark plug fires and piston goes down, then up,and then fires again, then it's a two-stroke engine. IN a 4-stroke engine, the spark plug fires, piston does down, then up to exhaust the cylinder, then down to suck in fresh air and cool the cylinder, and up again to compress, and the spark plug fires every other "up". How could you have a "three-stroke" engine? The spark plug fires and the explosion pushes the piston down, and the crankshaft pushes it back up. Then back down. If the spark plug fires while the piston is DOWN, the engine will seize up. Nope. In a piston engine, the number of "strokes" is always an even number. For radial or Wankel engines, things are different - but in those there is no piston, and no "stroke".


Can you use 2 stroke fuel on a 4 stroke engine?

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.


Where is the oil drain plug for 90hp 4 stroke Yamaha outboard engine?

it is on the rear of the engine below the engine. There is a rubber hose coming out of the motor and the drain plug is inside the rubber hose.


How many spark plug is used in four stroke and four cylinder engine?

Generally there is one spark plug per cylinder.


What is the next hotter plug from champion RN12YC?

The next hotter plug from the Champion RN12YC is the Champion RN11YC. Hotter plugs typically have a shorter insulator nose, which allows them to run at a higher temperature, improving combustion efficiency and reducing fouling in certain applications. When considering a hotter plug, it's essential to ensure it aligns with your engine's requirements to prevent pre-ignition or detonation issues.


How do you remove water from a 2 stroke engine?

What is the function of spark plug?

In a 4 stroke internal combustion engine it ignites the compressed gas thus forming the power stroke.


Whats the reason for eight spark plugs in a 2.3 liter ford engine?

For each cylinder , 1 spark plug fires on the power stroke and the 2nd plug fires on the exhaust stroke to reduce emissions


In which step of the four-stroke engine cycle does the spark plug initiate the combustion reaction?

compression and ignition


If speed of a two-stroke engine is N then what is the speed of a four-stroke engine?

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.
