How Does a Car Engine Work? 

For most of us, a car is filled with gas and is the machine that takes us from one place to another. Have you ever wondered: How does the car do this exercise? What makes it move? It is propelled by an internal combustion engine. But how does a car engine work? An internal combustion engine converts the heat generated from burning gasoline into mechanical work or torque. This torque is then applied to the wheels to make the car move forward. At Bluff Road Auto Sales in Columbia, SC, we present a video prepared by the folks at Toyota which elaborates on the workings of a car engine.
