Never mind then. I thought I'd heard of a 6-cycle engine that went intake-compression-power-compression-purge-exhaust. I didn't know about the steam, would that be on the 5th stroke?

Personally I don't think water should be allowed anywhere near an engine (it's corrosive); but if this would allow deleting the radiator, hoses, pumps and anti-freeze (which is poisonous to puppies and kittens) it might be worth it.
