This invention relates to internal combustion engines, which are employed in model aviation airplanes or other applications that can utilize two-stroke or four-stroke internal combustion engines. The four-stroke internal combustion engines are more desirable for their quietness of operation and high torque ability at lower Revolutions Per Minute. The four-stroke internal combustion engines that are currently available are heavier than desired and require constant maintenance and adjustment of the gears, cams, valves, valve seats, push rods, rod bearings, springs, rocker arms, bolts, lock nuts and various other parts.
