2. Four-stroke engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-stroke_engine

   Four-stroke cycle used in gasoline/petrol engines: intake (1), compression (2), power (3), and exhaust (4). The right blue side is the intake port and the left brown side is the exhaust port. The cylinder wall is a thin sleeve surrounding the piston head which creates a space for the combustion of fuel and the genesis of mechanical energy.

3. Motor oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_oil

   In use, motor oil transfers heat through conduction as it flows through the engine. [4] In an engine with a recirculating oil pump, this heat is transferred by means of airflow over the exterior surface of the oil pan, airflow through an oil cooler, and through oil gases evacuated by the positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) system.

4. Dry sump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_sump

   Gases (6) are returned to the engine sump. Pressure pump (4) forces the de-gassed and cooled oil (5) back to the engine's lubrication points (7). A dry-sump system is a method to manage the lubricating motor oil in four-stroke and large two-stroke piston driven internal combustion engines.

5. Total-loss oiling system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total-loss_oiling_system

   These engines were designed to have a total-loss lubrication system, with the motor oil held in a separate tank from the fuel in the vehicle, and not pre-mixed with it as with two-cycle engines, but mixed within the engine instead while running. Castor oil was often used because it lubricates well at the high temperatures found in air-cooled ...

6. Two-stroke oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_oil

   The oil is dyed blue to make it easier to recognize in the gasoline. It appears black in this bottle because it is not diluted. Two-stroke oil (also referred to as two-cycle oil, 2-cycle oil, 2T oil, or 2-stroke oil) is a special type of motor oil intended for use in crankcase compression two-stroke engines, typical of small gasoline-powered ...

7. Crankcase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase

   Four-stroke engine - oil shown in yellow at the bottom. Most four-stroke engines use a crankcase that contains the engine's lubricating oil, as either a wet sump system or the less common dry sump system. Unlike a two-stroke (crankcase-compression) engine, the crankcase in a four-stroke engine is not used for the fuel/air mixture.
