OBJECTIVE
introduction .
Basic components of a four-stroke engine
The four-stroke cycle
Advantages & Disadvantage
introduction
A four-stroke engine is an internal combustion engine
that utilises four distinct piston strokes (intake,
compression, power, and exhaust) to complete one
operating cycle. A complete operation in a four-stroke
engine requires two revolutions (720*) of the crankshaft
Basic Components of Four-Stroke

Rod Bearings
The 4-Stroke Cycle
A four-stroke engine is an internal combustion engine
that utilises four distinct piston strokes (intake,
compression, power, and exhaust) to complete one
operating cycle
Advantages
4 stroke engines have greater fuel eciencythan 2 stroke
ones because fuel is consumed once every 4 strokes.
As power is generated once every 4 strokes & also as no
oil or lubricant is added to the fuel.
4 stroke engine produces less pollution.
Disadvantages:
Four-stroke engines are heavier, weigh about 50%
more compare to two.
It creates higher torque at a lower rpm.
The system has more parts which could cause a
breakdown.
It's expensive and repairs cost more.
