Sorry to be pedantic, but injection is the wrong term here. We can see the fuel/air intake in this gif, but fuel injection is not shown.

Can someone do this and explain 'gears' to me? 1st gear, second, third gear. Speed wise.

Explosion makes piston thingy move, which turns other thingy and makes wheels turn.

This is why electric motors are so much more efficient.

Way too much valve lash. Please adjust those.

It's off because of the huge amount of lash. The valves open too late and close too early because only the ~top half of the cam is actually hitting the valve stem. Otherwise it's a cool model!

Blue valve opens, gas gets injected, piston is pushed back up, gas compresses, spark, boom. Red valve opens and smoke exists. Note how the piston does 4 up/downs in a cycle. Only 1 of those steps is powered by gas dirextly. The 3 other steps are powered by the movement of another piston.
The real beauty in there is the cam shaft IMO. The green things moving the valve. They have to be perfectly configured andnthe gear ration needs to be precise otherwise the valve wouldn't open at the right time.
This is not my expertise though ... I could be wrong

Intake - piston travels down to pull in air/fuel mix; compression - piston travels up to compress mix; power - mixture ignites, forcing piston down; exhaust - piston travels up to force out exhaust; process starts over.
Exhaust cycle for the valve timing seems a little bit off, but it’s close.

There are four pieces to the sequence. They are faking them with just three.

The middle cylinder misses a spark as well.

Hahaha, oh yeah, some deserve it and a bit more malicious.
I was mad as all hell for like 10 min, as I mentioned, not a morning person. But once I got on some dry clothes, and a cup of coffee it was all good again and we laughed about it.
We had a boss that was a royal dick, once when he for the millionth time did something to piss us all of, we lifted his car on top of a shipping container. We had 90T forklifts, and only us on the floor had the license. No idea how he got it down, cuz we went home. But it was gone the next day and we never heard anything.
