My first engine. Simple spring i4. Please comment any suggestions.

V1.1 ---------------

- Added more weight to all of the parts.
- Added a heavier flywheel.
- Added instruction text.
- Changed constants of springs.
- Changed dampening of springs.
- Added manual clutch control.
- Resized the whole scene for mostly realistic size.
- Grouped springs together for easy changing of constants.
- Reduced friction between piston and casing.
- Increased torque of starter motor.

That's very good for your first engine! Try using less reciprocation and more weight in all the parts. also keep in mind that it's huge (as long as a car!)
When I say more weight, I mean 100 kg/m2 on every part. then you'll be able to vary the springs' constant (keep damping at -1 or -0.5). Also use a heavy flywheel
The Linkage,

Thank you so much for your suggestions! I have added most of your suggestions, but I dont understand what you mean by less reciprocation. Do you mean a smaller path for the piston to travel? ex. Less distance from the lowest part of the stroke to the highest part?
Yeah, less disance from bore to stroke
