Just like humans in order to move, your engine requires energy. In fact, the core responsibility of the engine is to transform energy from fuel with a spark, to create the power to move. This internal combustion creates tiny, contained explosions to produce movement. While many of us think of the engine as one major component, it’s actually made up of several individual components working simultaneously. You may have heard of some of these car engine parts names but it’s important to know what their role is and how they relate to other components within the engine.
