Pistons converter the pressure of the burning air/fuel charge in the cylinder into torque through the connection to the crankshaft.
it depends. if the car isn't moving, but the engine is still on, then yes the pistons are moving. if the engine is off, and the car isn't moving, then the pistons are still.
It had a turbine engine, not a motor with pistons.
Simplified, a V6 engine is an engine with 6 pistons. A V4 engine is an engine with 4 pistons. (The more pistons the more horse power and the more gas you go through) -a 22 yr old girl
The pistons are running in the cylinders of the engine, so when the rpm of the engine rises, the pistons quickley build up speed. It is this rapid acceleration of the pistons that casue the car to shake.
No.
A car engine has many moving parts hundreds of them and they all have to work or the engine won't work, but it is very simple to explain how it works. When you ride a bike you are the engine.your legs go up and down and round and round. The pistons do the same thing, as you push down on the pedals the bike moves. The pistons do the same thing, they push on a part called a crankshaft and the force is transferred to the transmission and then the wheels and the car moves. An engine that uses gas was once called an internal combustion engine. In simple terms it has fire and pressure inside the cylinders where the pistons are. A car engine is like a steam engine they work the same way. But the pressure is made inside the cylinder and not in a boiler as a steam engine does .It's the pressure that makes it go.
Depends on what car it is and how big the engine is .... need to be more specific NELSON
The rings are like a gasket between the engine and the pistons. explosions happen in the engine which push the pistons to turn the engine and keep it going. If the rings are bad the explosion escapes and doesnt push pistons like its supposed to and engine wont run.
You probably have bad rings in at least one of your pistons.
Pistons are a major part of the engine and if one goes bad there ain't no fixing a piston, replacement is necessary.
this is the same in an older car. fuel is injected into the venturi, mixed with air, sent to the pistons, and- you are no longer working with carburetors. it is best if you research a car's carburetor.
YES ! -Each cylinder in a conventional car engine has one piston.
