Hi,

Another tie-in with this thread is the Crower 6-stroke engine:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crower_six_stroke

Once it warms up, it injects water into the cylinder, which expands as steam, producing a second power stroke, and cooling the engine at the same time. There is no need for a radiator, or a cooling system, as such...

Wow.
