Now that you have the basics, Patrick, go to the

OTTO CYCLE and Plug In The Numbers.

Vary , AMBIENT & COMBUSTION TEMPERATURE and PRESSURE, ONLY.

 

As you can see at 300 K Ambient, 0.25 Atmosphere Ambient (Intake Manifold) Pressure,

500 K Combustion Temp at a 7.0 compression ratio,  you can

Suck  Cold Air in from the Exhaust if the valves are leaky.  :-)

A bit short on accuracy there, Patrick.  :-)

NASA'S ANIMATED, FOUR STROKE ENGINE:

Also Note that when CRANKING  the engine with the butterfly valve CLOSED

the engine acts as a 4-stroke VACUUM PUMP and can LOWER the

PRESSURE in INTAKE MANIFOLD and THE JOE CELL to the vapor pressure of ICE WATER faster

than the HEAT FROM the BATTERY-POWERED ELECTROLYZER

can keep up.

They used to call that THE CHOKE.

 

Time was that you could manually "CHOKE" an engine by removing

the air breather/oilbath cleaner, and pressing your palm against the top of the carburetor

and end up getting a temporary hickey.  :-)
