The number of pistons in an engine typically corresponds to the number of cylinders it has, as each cylinder contains one piston. Common configurations include 4-cylinder, 6-cylinder, and 8-cylinder engines, among others. However, some specialized engines, like those in certain performance or industrial vehicles, may have more or fewer cylinders and thus pistons.
The engine capacity is calculated by measuring the size of a crankcase. The crankcase is the space that holds the pistons.

The engine powers a hydraulic pump, which then push the hydraulic oil to the pistons.
The vortec has bigger 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
Depends on how what type of engine it has. 4-cylinder = 4 pistons (inline) V6 = 6 pistons (arranged in a V-shape, thus the name V) V8 = 8 pistons
in the engine and they move up and down when it is running
There are ( 8 PISTONS ) in a V8 engine
Rotary engines do not have pistons.
It had a turbine engine, not a motor with pistons.
I'm assuming you mean "engine." A 2000 Jeep Cherokee (XJ) has a Inline 6 engine (I6 or L6.) The Inline 6 is one of the best ENGINES Chrysler (or anyone else for that matter) has built. Instead of two rows of 3 pistons, like a conventional V6 engine, a Inline 6 engine has all six pistons lined up in a row; It gives the engine, side-by-side with other comparable engines, more torque.

In an in-line engine, the pistons are parallel to each other (usually vertical). In a V engine, the pistons are at right angles to each other. V engines come in widely varying sizes. 2.0 designates size (2 cubic liters total piston displacement), not type of engine.
There are 6 spark plugs in a V6 engine.
A normal combustion engine has one piston per cylinder. So a 4 cylinder has 4 pistons, a 8 cylinder has 8 pistons, etc.
