It is not just old engines - any four-stroke engine follows this principle:
Suck: Intake stroke, the intake valve is open. The piston moves down, drawing air into the cylinder. In a normal petrol engine fuel is added at this stage.
Squeeze: Compression stroke . Both intake and exhaust valves are closed. The piston rises, compressing the contents of the cylinder.
Bang: Power stroke. The fuel/air mixture burns, creating expansion, forcing the piston back down.
Blow: Exhaust stroke. The exhaust valve opens, and the piston rises forcing the exhaust gases out of the cylinder.
See http://auto.howstuffworks.com/engine.htm for an animation that explains it.

in a 4 petrol stroke engine it is
Suck (in the fuel and air mixture)
(Then the fuel air mixture is compressed)
Bang (from the spark plug)
Blow (the waste gas out the exhaust pipe)
