How would that work? To start an engine you need fuel, air, spark and
compression. If the car had sat more than a minute, there would be no
compression and most injected engines cut the fuel off before the
engine stops spinning these days to mitigate "making oil" so the "next
cylinder" would be dry.



I don't think Scott understands what "start-stop" is.

Is there a particular dictionary definition, or do I have to join a
secret club to know? I think of start stop as the engine cutting at stop
signs or even down hills.. then starting back up when it's needed again.
Am I close professor?

He's probably thinking of the attempts to cut fuel and ignition to 2 or
more cylinders once a car had reached cruising speed. GM had a system
that cut an 8 cylinder back to 6 or 4 in the 1980's. Didn't really
work out very well.

Some modern engines have a system whereby if the engine starts to
overheat, a couple of cylinders will shut down and just pump air, adding
additional cooling. The engine in my truck is supposed to do that but
it has never had a reason to.

Not at all unexpected... guess that's what happens when you trim off the
meat of the conversation. Oh well...

He said no starter motor. I had no trouble conceptualizing it. And
googling confirms somebody was working on it. No idea if it's viable.
