4 Strokes of an Engine (Four-Stroke Cycle): 1. Intake Stroke 🔹 What happens: The piston moves downward, and the intake valve opens. Air and fuel mixture enters the cylinder.
🔹 Purpose: To fill the engine cylinder with the fuel-air mixture for combustion.
2. Compression Stroke 🔹 What happens: The piston moves upward while both intake and exhaust valves remain closed. It compresses the air-fuel mixture into a smaller volume.
🔹 Purpose: To make the mixture dense and ready for ignition, increasing efficiency.
3. Power Stroke (Combustion Stroke) 🔹 What happens: The compressed mixture is ignited by a spark plug. The explosion pushes the piston downward with force.
🔹 Purpose: This is where energy is produced to move the vehicle.
4. Exhaust Stroke 🔹 What happens: The piston moves upward again, and the exhaust valve opens. The burnt gases are expelled out of the cylinder.
🔹 Purpose: To clear the cylinder of waste gases so a new cycle can begin.

🎯 Quick Memory Trick:
Intake → Compression → Power → Exhaust
(Fill → Squeeze → Boom → Blow out)
