The document discusses different types of engines classified by their fuel source and combustion method. It focuses on petrol engines, which are internal combustion engines that burn petrol fuel inside the engine cylinders. The key types discussed are two-stroke and four-stroke petrol engines. Two-stroke engines complete the combustion cycle in two piston strokes while four-stroke engines use four strokes of the piston. The four strokes are intake, compression, power, and exhaust.
