How an engine works.
This diagram shows the flow of fuel and exhaust within a V8
engine. It shows the timing chain (driven by the crankshaft) drives the camshaft, which opens the valves. Fuel enters the
cylinders via the intake manifold. The spark-caused explosions force the pistons down. Rotation of the crank forces the pistons
back up, which expels the exhaust.
