2. Leaf blower - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaf_blower

   A leaf blower, commonly known as a blower, is a device that propels air out of a nozzle to move debris such as leaves and grass cuttings. Leaf blowers are powered by electric or gasoline motors . Gasoline models have traditionally been two-stroke engines , but four-stroke engines were recently introduced to partially address air pollution concerns.

3. Stihl - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stihl

   Stihl was founded in 1926 by Andreas Stihl, an innovator in early chainsaw production. Stihl says it is the world's best-selling brand of chainsaws and the only chainsaw manufacturer to make its own saw chains and guide bars. [4] Andreas Stihl AG is a privately held company owned by the descendants of Andreas Stihl.

4. Two-stroke engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_engine

   Two-stroke engines often have a higher power-to-weight ratio than a four-stroke engine, since their power stroke occurs twice as often. Two-stroke engines can also have fewer moving parts, and thus be cheaper to manufacture and weigh less. In countries and regions with stringent emissions regulation, two-stroke engines have been phased out in ...

5. Two- and four-stroke engines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-_and_four-stroke_engines

   The shaft of the four-stroke piston rotates twice as fast as the shaft of the two-stroke piston, and the two-stroke part always runs at half speed. This ensures that both parts work optimally regarding fuel consumption at all times. The same principles apply to having two distinct engines, but the design of the M4+2 is much simpler.

6. Two-stroke diesel engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_diesel_engine

   Cutaway model of a MAN B&W two-stroke marine diesel engine with the piston rod attached to a crosshead. In the two-stroke cycle, the four stages of internal combustion engine operation (intake, compression, ignition, exhaust) occur in one 360° revolution of the crank shaft, whereas in a four-stroke engine they take two complete revolutions.

7. Scavenging (engine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scavenging_(engine)

   Scavenging is the process of replacing the exhaust gas in a cylinder of an internal combustion engine with the fresh air/fuel mixture (or fresh air, in the case of direct-injection engines) for the next cycle. If scavenging is incomplete, the remaining exhaust gases can cause improper combustion for the next cycle, leading to reduced power output.
