Two Stroke Engines Important to Developing Nations

Because of their simple design and increased power, two stroke engines are used in all kinds of smaller automobiles, motorcycles, and other vehicles. In developing nations, two stroke engines play a central part to economic growth. However, these two stroke engines can also cause significant pollution. In developing nations, pollution has become a problem because there are so many two stroke engines.

Two stroke engines all use a mixture of 2 stroke oil and gasoline, and because almost 40% of the oil and gasoline goes out of the exhaust pipe unburned, they can be inefficient. Though two stroke engines are an integral part of developing nations, it’s also important for newer two stroke technologies to be developed that cause less pollution. Manufacturers of two stroke outboard motors, like Evinrude, have already been doing this for quite some time.
