i tried again, this time without chris yaking in my ear 
, 82%
"you were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off"
, 82% "you were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off"
76% - bugger... nearly a pass. good quiz tho, normally i hate these things!
Now I want to see all the answers please ps tried again with Tim in my ear 50% lol
ps tried again with Tim in my ear 50% lolthere is certainly a couple of suspect questions in there [?]

I was always led to believe that atmospheric pressure was the same what ever the suface area it was on and i surpose air will enter an open valve into a cylinder under atmospheric pressure wether a piston is pulling it in or not but i stand to be corrected,maybe i haven't read the questions properly[?][?][?]
back to my "rootes"

What happened to 'Suck, Squeeze, Bang, Blow' [?]
Yes, atmospheric pressure is the same on any surface, slightly trick question

Right - here goes.
Suck (verb transitive) - to draw up or render by suction.
Sucker (noun) - a device that ... draws water etc. by suction, such as a pump piston.
Suction (noun) - the act or power of sucking or of drawing or adhesion by reducing the pressure of air
Therefore, they can both be right. The piston sucks air by reducing pressure in the cylinder and atmospheric pressure pushes air in through the valve as it becomes higher pressure than that in the cylinder [?]
I answered suction from the piston, using the 'suck squeeze bang blow' cycle I was taught in physics (we didn't do film studies and I dropped biology at 'o' level) [}]
P.S. Panky, no offence taken, I am not a mechanic and will need help when I get to the greasy bits of my Renault, particularly the fuel injection.

out of the 4 possible answers to the last question 3 are correct.
gravity- air has weight (the air in a 10ft sq room weighs 80lb)even more so when mixed with petrol (7lb a gallon), so gravity does help induce mixture in.
suction- the piston traveling downwards will creates a vacuum which causes suction.
atmospheric pressure- as renaultvation says, the descending piston creates a change in volume which causes a pressure drop which a/p will rush to fill. (this is the answer they wanted).
