3. Two-stroke power valve system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_power_valve_system

   The only moving parts inside simple two-stroke engines are the crankshaft, the connecting rod, and the piston. It is the same simplicity in design, however, that causes a two-stroke engine to be less fuel-efficient and produce high specific levels of undesirable exhaust gas emissions. At the bottom of the power stroke, the transfer ports, which ...
