Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method to rotate crankshaft of an engine via a pneumatic system is disclosed herein. The engine includes a plurality of engine cylinders. The pneumatic system has an air compressor and a plurality of valves. The method includes monitoring angular orientation of the crankshaft and determining the position of the piston of the plurality of engine cylinders. An engine cylinder amongst the plurality of engine cylinders is selected with the piston in one of a power stroke or a compression stroke. A valve corresponding to the engine cylinder is activated. Upon activation of the valve, compressed air is supplied to the engine cylinder by the air compressor. The valve is then deactivated as the piston attains completion of one power stroke or one compression stroke. The activation, supply, and deactivation are sequentially repeated for each of the plurality of engine cylinders, based on predetermined firing order of the engine.
