About: Sir Dugald Clerk, a Scottish engineer, is credited by some to execute the first demonstrated fully functioning supercharging system with the world’s first successful two-stroke engine. The two cylinder engine was designed with one working cylinder with the second cylinder acting as a pump to force gases through the lift valve into the motor cylinder. The cylinder was able to force more air into the engine but did not compress it.
