Description: "This book specifically addresses the two-stroke cycle internal combustion engine used in compact, lightweight form in everything from motorcycles to chainsaws to outboard motors, and in large sizes for marine propulsion and power generation. The objective of this book is to collect and organize information and to provide a summary of knowledge of this widely used engine concept."--BOOK JACKET.

"The Two-Stroke Cycle Engine is an indispensable resource for all researchers developers, designers, users, and inventors of two-stroke cycle engines, as well as for professors and students in the field. As a complete, reference, it should serve as both an introduction to the field and a comprehensive overview of what is currently known about this widely used internal combustion engine concept."--BOOK JACKET.
