The cylinder is the part of the Otto-engine that generates Power.
Summary
It draws in a mixture of fuel and Air*, compresses it, ignites it, and the resulting miniature explosion pushes on a piston which connects to the crankshaft beneath the cylinder, turning it, and so driving the engine generator.
*The Otto-engine currently does not need to be supplied with air in order to function.
