Six-stroke engine
A six-stroke engine is a type of engine that uses six 'strokes' (or, movements) to turn fuel into energy. A 'stroke' is like the full cycle one wheel on a bicycle would go through, from when it is at its highest point, to when it is at its lowest point.
In a six-stroke engine, the first stroke brings in fresh air from the atmosphere - like when you take a deep breath. The second stroke compresses the air (squeezes it together), like when you press your hands together. The third stroke adds fuel, like when you put food in your mouth. The fourth stroke mixes the fuel and air together, like when you chew your food and it gets mixed with your saliva. The fifth stroke ignites the fuel like when you swallow your food. And the sixth stroke pushes out the exhaust or waste, like when you burp.
The six-stroke engine is more efficient than a four-stroke engine, because it uses the air and fuel more efficiently.
