Engine Block
The engine block is the main structural component of the engine. It houses the cylinders, crankshaft, and other internal components. The engine block is made of cast iron or aluminum.
Crankshaft
The crankshaft is a rotating shaft that converts the reciprocating motion of the pistons into rotational motion. The crankshaft is made of forged steel or cast iron.
Pistons
The pistons are cylindrical-shaped components that move up and down within the cylinders. The pistons are made of aluminum or cast iron.
Connecting Rods
The connecting rods connect the pistons to the crankshaft. The connecting rods are made of forged steel or cast iron.
Camshaft
The camshaft is a shaft that controls the opening and closing of the valves. The camshaft is made of forged steel or cast iron.
Valves
The valves are components that allow air and fuel to enter the cylinders and exhaust gases to exit the cylinders. The valves are made of steel.
Timing Belt
The timing belt is a toothed belt that synchronizes the rotation of the crankshaft and camshaft. The timing belt is made of reinforced rubber.
Water Pump
The water pump is a component that circulates coolant through the engine to remove heat. The water pump is made of cast iron or aluminum.
Oil Pump
The oil pump is a component that circulates oil through the engine to lubricate the moving parts. The oil pump is made of cast iron or aluminum.
