The engine in your Kia is made up of a number of parts that work together to produce the power you rely on as you go about your busy day. Some of those even serve to move other parts that you depend on, too.

Parts of Your Kia Engine

The core of your engine is the engine block itself. It's home to combustion, and the other engine components connect to it. The engine pistons pump up and down to compress the air-and-fuel mixture contained within, pressurizing the mix for combustion. Cylinder heads sit on top, sealing the engine and keeping the noxious gases contained within. There are valves and spark plugs that connect to the cylinder head. A crankshaft, which attaches to the lower portion of the engine block, takes the vertical motion from the pistons and converts it into rotary motion that that your drivetrain uses.
