None of the above choices are correct. Combustion in a gas engine of a car occurs when a mixture of gasoline and air is compressed in the engine cylinder. The compression raises the temperature of the mixture, and then a spark plug ignites the fuel, causing a controlled explosion that pushes the piston down and drives the engine.
