If you really want to learn the basics for how a engine works buy yourself a old 5hp push lawn mower. $20 at a garage sale or flea market. go to the library and get a book on small engine repair. then take the thing apart and put it back together. Its a 4cycle engine just like a car except theres only one cylender. it will give you a good idea of how things work and its small enough that you can take it apart and put it together without any real expensive tools. Where a car if you screw it up your out a car and you need lots of expensive tools to do it.
