It's a fun ad to watch, but I have my issues with it.

The explosion was idealized for the sake of being more artistic. Being able to see so much of the cylinder bore when the explosion was starting bothered me. (As RC mentioned, since when did combustion start at BDC?)

When I first heard about this ad, I was hoping they'd be finding ways to jam tiny camera's into a (mostly) working engine but instead it was all cutaway work (which is sort of ok for the injection sequence.) I can understand not showing the exhaust stroke after the climactic combustion scene, but why no compression stroke?
