16
Q

provides the good sealing fit and less friction resistance between piston and cylinder

A

Piston Ring

17
Q

used in spark ignition engine, It is fitted on the cylinder head and used to ignite the air fuel mixture inside the cylinder at the end of each compression stroke

A

Spark Plug

18
Q

usually used in comression ignition engine, It sprays the fuel into combustion chamber at the end of compression stroke

A

Injector

19
Q

main function is to supply the air fuel mixture and collects the exhaust gases equally from all cylinders,

A

Manifold

20
Q

serves as the lubricating system

A

Crank Case
