We apologize for the error in our video where it was stated that pistons rotate inside the cylinder. Pistons actually move up and down, with the crankshaft converting this motion into rotational power. The only time a 'piston' rotates is in a Wankel/rotary engine, where the 'piston' is a rotor.
Thank you for your understanding, and we hope you find the rest of the video helpful!

Pistons don't rotate inside an engine.
Pistons move up and down and that force is turned into rotational power.
The only time a 'piston' rotates inside an engine is in the case of Wankel/rotary engine where, as the name implies, the 'piston' is in fact a rotor.

Thank you for pointing out the error in our video. We apologize for the mistake during the scripting process. You are absolutely correct: pistons in a typical internal combustion engine move up and down and do not rotate. The force from the piston's linear motion is converted into rotational power by the crankshaft.
The only exception is in the case of a Wankel/rotary engine, where the 'piston' is actually a rotor that rotates inside the engine.
We appreciate your understanding and hope that despite this error, you found the rest of the video helpful. Thank you for your feedback, and we will ensure greater accuracy in future content.

This is a really terrible video.
Aside from the fact that there are massively incorrect statements within the first 60 seconds, you keep jumping between 2- and 4-stroke engine components with no warning, no information about how they differ, and how each component really works. You can't jsut make a statement about the crankcase being an area where an air:fuel mixture passes through on a 2-stroke without explaining why. You immediaterly moved on to state that the crankcase is where oiil is stored in a 4-stroke engine without even explaining why a 2-stroke doesn't have/require a sump, or a complex head, timing system etc.

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the inaccuracies and the lack of clarity in the video. We recognize the importance of differentiating between 2-stroke and 4-stroke engine components and explaining their functions properly. Your points about the crankcase and the differences between these engine types are valid, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
We are committed to providing accurate and informative content and will work on creating a more detailed and clear explanation in future videos. Thank you for your understanding and for helping us improve.

@@studentlesson Thank you for actually reading my comment and replying.
I know that many people struggle to visualise how an internal combustion engine works, and I feel like trying to imagine a piston rotating would only make that visualisation process more difficult.
A good place to start with engine education is to start at the heart of the engine: the crankshaft. Explain what it does and what’s attached to it and work backwards from there. It’s much easier to understand that than it is to work from the head, injectors, valves etc down.
