Abstract
The invention relates to a method for starting operation of an internal combustion engine, wherein the method comprises the steps of: when the internal combustion engine is not operating, providing pressurized gas in the air intake duct; opening the intake valve in a first cylinder while keeping the exhaust valve of the first cylinder closed so as to allow the pressurized gas to enter the first cylinder, press onto the corresponding piston and thereby move the corresponding piston and rotate the crank shaft; supplying fuel to at least one of the cylinders where the corresponding piston has performed or is performing a compression step so as to ignite the fuel and start operation of the engine.
