High pressure is created by an exploding gasoline-air mixture. This pressure pushes the cylinders of the engine down, doing work that moves the car.

Why is a car not starting but the battery works?
Double check that the battery works, then check if the engine works.
How does a car's engine turn the wheels of the car?
It doesn't it provides hydraulic pressure but steering linkage is independent of the engine.
How does stream car engine works?
Not sure what a stream car is, please explain.
What is the purpose of the pressure gauge in a car?
For the operator to monitor the oil pressure of the engine. If the oil pressure drops below average when running, the engine is in trouble.
Why does the engine bog after a rebuild?
What car and engine? How is valve and ignition timing?, fuel pressure, etc?
How does a car engine develops?
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.
Heat inside car works but engine overheats?
Your question is not clear...
Can you drive a car with low oil pressure?
Yes, if you want to destroy your engine.
How does an oil pressure switch work?
An oil pressure switch works by detecting the pressure of the oil in the car and alerting you to any problems. Oil pressure naturally increases when a car is running, but if the pressure gets too high or drops, it can create numerous problems.
Why does the oil light come on when your car stalls?
The light comes on when the car stalls because the engine is not running and the pump therefore is not pumping. The pressure will always be 0 when the engine stalls and the light is directly related to pressure. This is normal, you have no problem, other than the engine stalling.
Why engine of a running car is hot?
A car engine works by burning a fuel and air mixture releasing heat into the engine making it hot. The workings of the engine also involves friction which creates additional heat.
Does the car have to be on when resetting tire pressure light?
It varies from car to car. In my experience it does help to have the ignition on or the engine running while adding air to the tires. The system seems to recognized the pressure change faster and turn the light out.It varies from car to car.
