A method to control a four-stroke combustion engine, comprising at least one cylinder; a piston arranged in each cylinder; at least one inlet valve arranged in each cylinder which is connected with an inlet system; at least one first camshaft which controls each inlet valve; at least one exhaust valve arranged in each cylinder which is connected with an exhaust system; at least one second camshaft which controls each exhaust valve; and a crankshaft which controls each camshaft. At least one phase-shifting device is arranged between the crankshaft and the second camshaft, to phase-shift the second camshaft in relation to the crankshaft to a state, where the exhaust valve is controlled in such a way, that it is opened during the expansion stroke of the engine and closed during the exhaust stroke of the engine, to achieve engine braking through compression in the cylinders during the exhaust stroke.
