If you ever wanted to know how engines work

[lorrieandjas]

Hi All,

I know a lot on here will already know all this but I pointed a friend to these articles a while ago - before he read them he had no idea about how an internal combustion engine worked and even less idea about diesels. Might make interesting reading for some. Note - there are some errors in here but in general for those who wanted to know how engines work not a bad read:

HOW CAR ENGINES WORK:

HOW DIESEL ENGINES WORK:
http://www.howstuffworks.com/diesel.htm

HOW TURBOS WORK:

Hope it helps out someone.
