    • Before we go further, it is important to know several types of reciprocating engine. 

      Basically, there has four reciprocating engine. Below the types with it's application.

      1- Two stroke petrol engine - small engine; chainsaw, water pump
      2- Four stroke petrol engine - passenger vehicle
      3- Four stroke diesel engine - large vehicle; bus, loader
      4- Two stroke diesel engine - huge application; power plant, ship engine
