External Combustion Steam Engine -
A liquid is heated and converted into gas by an external source through combustion. Then, it goes through a shaft and pushes a piston which then causes motion in the object. The gas then empties and the cycle repeats.

4 Stroke Gasoline Engine -
Gas enters through the intake valve which pushes down on the piston and turns the wheel and finally exits through the exhaust valve.

4 Stroke Diesel Engine -
Practically the same as a gasoline engine. Read the image above for information.

2 Stroke Engine -
The spark plug fires the piston downward and allows the gas coming in from the intake to exit through the exhaust.
