The steering __________ transfers the motion of the steering gear output shaft to the steering arms that turn the wheels.
linkage |
|
column |
|
cylinder |
|
arms |
The steering linkage is a system of pivots and connecting parts between the steering gear and the control arms. The steering linkage transfers the motion of the steering gear output shaft to the steering arms that turn the wheels.
Cylinder air and fuel intake valves, exhaust valves, and mounts for spark plugs and fuel injectors are contained in the:
cylinder head |
|
piston ring |
|
manifold |
|
head gasket |
Cylinders act as a guide for the pistons that translate the heat energy of combustion into the mechanical energy necessary to move a vehicle. Piston rings seal the piston to the cylinder to contain combustion gases and also regulate the oil distribution between the piston and cylinder wall. A cylinder head closes in the top of the cylinder forming the combustion chamber which is sealed by a head gasket (head). The head provides space for air and fuel intake valves, exhaust valves, and mounts for spark plugs and fuel injectors.
The fuel injectors are fed fuel by the:
fuel return line |
|
fuel pressure regulator |
|
powertrain control module |
|
electric fuel pump |
The electric fuel pump feeds pressurized fuel through a fuel filter to the fuel injectors via the fuel rail manifold. The fuel rail contains the fuel pressure regulator which ensures that the fuel injectors receive fuel at a consistent and known rate. Excess fuel bled off by the pressure regulator returns to the fuel tank through the fuel return line.
The combustion chamber is enclosed by the:
piston ring |
|
cylinder head |
|
head gasket |
|
piston |
