CHAPTER OUTLINE

• In a simple one-cylinder engine, the reciprocating (up-and-down) motion of the piston is changed
to usable rotary motion by the connecting rod and crankshaft. A flywheel gives momentum to the
crankshaft between power strokes. Valves control the engine’s intake and exhaust. (PPT Slide 4)

• During one four-stroke cycle, the intake, compression, power, and exhaust strokes are completed.
This action takes 720°, or two crankshaft revolutions. (PPT Slide 5)
