thanks for ur reply mate..!! now am in great confusion tat wil it be possible to give accurate timing for opening and closing of valves at the exact positions( TDC & BDC ).. but i gonna give it a try..!!Gurjapyour engine is now essentially gonna be two-stroke; the first is when you open (the formerly) inlet valve and the compressed air fills the cylinder. After BDC, you open the other valve and the "blowdown" will occur (if I may use that term when there is no burned gas 😛). This will cause the used air to rush out the exhaust pipe (if you are using that). This will be start of the second stroke. I have to stress that you open the outlet valve immediately after the piston reached BDC, or it will start needlessly re-compressing the air.
About what you've said about the timing system, you will need to modify that if your engine is four stroke, as is obvious from the above paragraph. If the one you have is mechanical, removing it in favor of a solenoid one is not a bad idea; if you know how to control that one.
