a crankshaft is what the connecting rod holding the pistons connects to, it spins your flywheel turning all your belts and also turning your transmission. an engine has 4 strokes: intake (fuel and air), compression (compressing the fuel and air), power (spark plug ignites the fuel creating power) exaughst (lets out burned gasses) and then repeats the cycle. the crankshaft turns 180 degrees for every stroke, the crank shaft is located inside the motor in the engine block.
