This is an engine that powerd the Model T Cars from 1903 to 1928 when the production of the car stoped. Ove the years this engine went through many tecnological changes. One change is the electric start. Before thean you had to turn a crank on the front of the car untill it turned over. Inside it has 4 cylenders (Not Shown) each cylender had a cyindrical peice of medal that moved up and down called a piston. When a piston gets to the top of it's cylender a spark plug fires (the yellow hixogon shaped things.)The volontly exploding vapor(Gasoline vapor made by carborator cylender with box onit)pused the piston down. The fireing of the spark plugs is controled by the distributor,(the black cylidrical ob ject with wires coming out of it.) To read more about Auto engines Check out Wilipedia. #Engines
