插图：The engine is the source of power that makes the wheels go around and the car move. The automobile engine is a machine that turns heat energy of fuel into mechanical energy for moving the vehicle. Because fuel is burned within the engine, it is also called internal combustion engine. The burning of gasoline inside the engine produces high pressure in the engine combustion chamber. This high pressure forces piston to move, the movement is carried by connecting rods to the engine crankshaft. The crankshaft is thus made to rotate, then, the rotary motion is carried through the power train to the car wheels so that they rotate and the car moves.The engine needs different systems to perform above {unction. An Audi 100 vehicle engine is shown in Figure 1 - 2. They are piston crank mechanism, valve mechanism, fuel system, ignition system, starting system, cooling system and lubricating system in a gasoline engine, yet there is no ignition system in a diesel engine because the diesel is burned by compression-ignition.
