[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by drailed1999</i> <br /><br />AntiGates: the start of injection occurs 28 - 30 degrees BTDC (before top dead center).

One last bonehead question?, At what stage of the piston cycle are the air intake valves opened and closed? before/after the bottom of the power stroke,.. (or before TDC /after TDC if thats more conveniant for you to use. <br /> <br />The point I'm tripping on is, yeah I guess with a 'driven' air intake , it would be possible to perform intake as the piston is progressing into it's compression stroke,..but (in contrast) a normally aspirated 2 cycle couldn't (could it?) it would have to rely on a portion of the pistons downward stroke, which is the power stroke, meaning combustion/exhaust/intake all have to occur on the pistons downward stroke, without a turbo or blower?
