Engine Parts

Many different parts make up your original Acura engine. Together, they generate the power your car or SUV uses to run, and they help its many other parts move. Your engine's core is a block with pistons, a cylinder head, a camshaft, spark plugs, a crankshaft, and an oil pan or sump, among other parts. Engine pistons pump up and down, pressurizing the mixture of oxygen and gas the engine burns to make power. The cylinder head is on top of the engine. It seals the area and helps prevent gas escaping. The head's intake valve and exhaust valve adjust everything from airflow and fuel quantity to the exhaust fumes inside the engine. A camshaft keeps these valves opening and closing in time with everything else. Spark plugs are what ignite that fuel and air, combusting it and releasing power. A crankshaft converts power to rotary motion, rotation that your driveshaft and transmission transform into wheel and tire movement. An oil pan or sump stores the motor oil that lubricates engine parts during operation. Many other factory Acura parts make your engine work properly. Those like gears, sprockets, rings, and bearings make everything fit together the way it should. When engine parts wear out, though, it can lead to stalling, idling or acceleration troubles, and fuel efficiency loss, among other engine problems. You may not even be able to start your vehicle at all. Luckily, you can buy the best Acura engine parts possible for a repair job online, at our auto parts counter.
