Actuators receive signals from the powertrain control module and carry out adjustments needed based on the data the PCM received from the sensors.

The battery supplies the power necessary to start the engine when the ignition switch is is turned on.

The cast iron exhaust manifolds collect engine exhaust gas from multiple cylinder exhaust valves and deliver it to the exhaust pipe. Exhaust manifolds can be generic or specially tuned (header pipes) to the engine. Header pipes deliver higher performance but are more expensive and less durable.

The fluid reservoir stores the brake fluid that the master cylinder uses to maintain hydraulic pressure.

Spark plugs receive current from the distributor and use it to spark combustion in the combustion chamber of a cylinder.
