4 stroke engines can and do run backwards, but not very well. Have you ever seen
a car continue to run after the ignition was turned off? 50 to 60 percent of the
time, the engine is running bacwards, ignited by a hot spot in the chamber due to
an overheated and poorly tuned engine. I had an ASE class on this.
