Gasoline Engines Use internal combustion – fuel is vaporized and mixed with air inside a closed chamber Mixture is compressed to 6-10 times atmospheric pressure and ignited with a spark Fuel burns explosively forming a gas of CO2 and water vapor. Since the nitrogen in the air is not part of the reaction to burn hydrocarbons, it also heats up to over 1000 C. Now when a gas heats it expands and exerts a force. The expanding gases exert the force on a piston, which pushes it downward and causes the crankshaft to rotate. 4 stroke internal combustion engine cycle. Gasoline engines Efficiency of co
