That is a really ODD question.

1. cyl head
2. piston movement is reciprocating
3. A vacuum is generated when the piston travels down duing the intake stroke reducing atmospheric pressure allowing the cylinder to fill with air. The further open the throttle, the more air is allowed to enter the cyinder.
4. Fuel input is performed via a fuel pump, filter, lines, to the injectors which a computer determines the sequence and duration of injector operation. Spark ignition is also controlled by the same computer which also determines at what point to open the ground circuit of the coil which induces a 12v primary circuit into 40,000 volt secondary circuit.
