Default Re: engine torque

I dnt no wat a "d piston" looks lyk nor wat a "TDC d combuston" iz.

Anyway, if you asking why there is motion when the piston / crank / rod are in the same line, then the answer is that, at the time of motion (considering we analyze form t = +0 i.e after motion has already started) then the crank has inertia which makes it move out of that 'no torque' zone.

Now how is it that the crank has motion in the first place? That because of the initial combustion.

TIP: Try 2 rite n englsh.
