To help you discover how internal combustion engines work, Machine Works have created an augmented reality app for your smartphone! This creates an interactive experience with the finished model so you can see an exploded view of the model, five animations of key components of engines, detailed descriptions of eleven different parts of the model, an engine sound and lots more to bring the engine to life! The kit includes free access to the app, accessible from both the Apple and Google play stores. The box includes all the parts and tools needed, as well as a step by step instruction manual to guide you through the build process. As these engines use spark plugs for the combustion of the air-fuel mixture, these are also. It’s designed to be a fun project, which when finished, becomes a practical aid to understanding how a full-size four-stroke combustion engine works. The term four-stroke indicates the engine in which a single working cycle is completed within four strokes of the piston (suction, compression, expansion, exhaust) while Petrol indicates the engine that works on a petrol cycle (Otto cycle). This model is a greatly simplified version of a real V8 car engine. Comes with a Haynes style manual giving you step by step instructions as well as interesting information about V8 engines. Contains nearly 300 pieces and all that you need to assemble the model.

The four-stroke cycle, spark ignition engine was equipped with a carburetor.
