I did not know if this has been posted here before. If it has sorry for the repost.
This is a good animation of how a 2 stroke motor works. You can see how important the returning wave exhaust is in making good power.http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=htt ... Ag&dur=111

2 stroke motors are fascinating. How something can be so simple yet complex at the same time is really neat.
That's a cool article too. Learned some new stuff.

Check out the old school 2 stroke Detroit Diesels. With them you can, if your careful remove a side cover and watch the piston go up and down while it is running.
