acts as the engine oil reservoir |
|
screens debris from oil |
|
cools engine oil |
|
feeds the oil pump |

Which of the following is not a function of a car battery?
delivers current to the ignition system to start the engine |
|
acts as a supplemental source of energy to moderate engine performance |
|
delivers supplemental current when the alternator can't handle high electrical system loads |
|
acts as an electrical reservoir for excessive current |
The lead-acid battery is the core of the electrical system, providing current to the ignition system to start the engine as well as delivering supplemental current when the alternator can't handle high electrical system loads and acting as an electrical reservoir for excessive current.
Waste gases from combustion are removed from the combustion chamber by the:
piston |
|
head gasket |
|
exhaust valve |
|
camshaft |
The combustion chamber is located in the cylinder head and contains the combustion of the air-fuel mixture. This mixture is delivered by an intake valve and the waste gases from combustion are removed from the combustion chamber by the exhaust valve.
Which engine component converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotational motion that's used to power the vehicle and its components?
driveshaft |
|
camshaft |
|
halfshaft |
|
crankshaft |
The crankshaft converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotational motion that's used to power the vehicle and its components.
