We've seen many engine configurations come and go, with some being more noteworthy than others and some being just outrageous. Honda attempted to modify the shapes of the pistons used in its engine, ...
The two-stroke gasoline engine was once a marvel of engineering, offering up huge doses of power in small and lightweight packages. Unfortunately, gas two-strokes also burn oil by design, making them ...
There are two basic differences between 2 stroke and 4 stroke motors. One has to do with how many strokes it takes a piston to complete an engine cycle (more on that below). The other has to do with ...
If you’re shopping for a new fishing boat or an outboard motor to power it, one of the decisions you’ll have to make is between a 2 stroke vs 4 stroke engine. Unless you’re going electric, this choice ...
The best Cummins diesel engines are the result of decades of innovation, which all began with founder Clessie Cummins. They also have a history of racing at the Indianapolis 500. In 1934, Cummins ...
The Detroit Diesel Corporation originally launched in 1938 as a division of General Motors, and its main purpose was to build a two-stroke engine that would combine power and versatility in a small ...
The heart of this build is a Suzuki DT225 engine. This 2-stroke 2,700cc V6 is well-known as a reliable, powerful fuel-injected outboard motor for fishing boats. It’s rated at 225 horsepower (168 kW), ...
Any oddball engine is clickbait crack for mechanical nerds, and the most compelling ones purport to introduce an entirely new combustion concept. "Not a four-stroke, not a two-stroke, a revolutionary ...
I was reading some goofy argument by some guys who wanted to turbocharge a lawn-mower. For the life of me I can't find the link right now - in fact, I can't even remember how I got there.
Years ago, the choice was clear: When it came to 2 stroke vs 4 stroke outboard motors, 2 stroke won every time. Two stroke motors offered a better power-to-weight ratio, were cheaper to manufacture, ...
