An engine is a machine that produces mechanical force and motion from another form of energy (e.g. a fuel source, compressed air, or electricity). It is also referred to as a prime mover. An automobile makes use of several motors to start the car and drive the car's various pumps – but the power plant that propels the car is called an engine. The term motor was originally used to distinguish the new internal combustion engine-powered vehicles from earlier vehicles powered by a steam engine, such as the steam roller and motor roller; but can be used to refer to any engine that creates motion.

Historic military siege engines included large catapults, trebuchets, and battering rams.

What can remove or correct an car engine having oil gel problems?
Q. A "engine oil" light and a slight tapping sound is coming from the engine. Checking the engine oil dip stick, shows no oil is circulating in through the engine. However there's no indicationsof a engine "over heat" condition while operating
Asked by Warrant - Fri Oct 5 02:49:39 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Just because you do not see oil on the dip stick does not mean there is no oil. If you do not see any thing on the stick you are At least 2 quarts low on oil. Most oil pans will hold 4 to 5 quarts of oil. Add 2 quarts of oil, check the stick and see where it is at. once you get the oil level up to where it needs to be, you need to check your oil at every fill up and add oil as needed. You may also want to look at changing the oil more frequently like every 2000 miles.

Why is my engine getting hot when plenty of coolant is in the reservoir?
Q. I have a 1999 Chevy Lumina LS. The "Low Coolant" dashboard light came on but when I check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir, there's plenty in it (way above the Hot line when engine is warm). The temperature gauge on the dashboard is showing that the engine temperature is increasing. It stopped at halfway after a 20-30 minute drive. It's usually pointing at one-eighth of the guage. Is there anything I can do without getting a mechanic?

A. Go ahead and change the thermostat first because it's the easiest and the cheapest. Normal coolant in the system but still overheats usually means you have a bad water pump. If your not experienced then you have to bring it in.

How long before the internal combustion engine will be a thing of the past for cars in the western world?
Q. I think you will see what appears to be a short transitioning period from conventional engines to some other engine system. It will happen around 2015. By 2020, you will rarely see a car in North America or Europe with an internal combustion engine. What do you think?
