powering electrical devices such as flashlights, mobile phones, and electric cars.
Spark plug- is a device for delivering electric current from an ignition system to the combustion
chamber of a spark-ignition engine to ignite the compressed fuel/air mixture by an electric spark,
while containing combustion pressure within the engine.
Distributor- a device in a gasoline engine for passing electric current to each spark plug in turn.
Cooling system
Water pump- acts as a centrifugal pump to force the circulation of water from the radiator to engine
water engine jackets.
Temperature Gauge- Located at the drivers compartment to register the temperature of the engine
Cooling Fan- It is attached to the water pump pulley and draws air in through the radiator and helps
cool off the engine during operation
EXHAUST SYSTEM
Catalytic Converter- converts harmful carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons into water vapor and
carbon dioxide.
Exhaust manifold- is attached to the cylinder head and takes each cylinders exhaust and combines it
into one pipe.
Muffler- is a device for reducing the noise emitted by the exhaust of an internal combustion engine.

Carburettor- Its main purpose is to mix the right amount of air and fuel and deliver it to the engine.
Fuel filter- It is fixed in both the ends of the fuel pumps to separate impurities from the fuel.
Fuel pump- Its primary function is to draw fuel from the fuel tank and pump it into the combustion
engine
BRAKE SYSTEM
PARKING BRAKE HANDLE- is a mechanism used to keep the vehicle securely motionless when parked.
Caliper- uses the hydraulic force from the brake pedal to squeeze the brake pads to the rotor
surfaces
Brake shoe- are the curved, metal friction plates pressing against the inside of the brake drums to
slow the wheels
Brake fluid reservoir- - are canisters that connect to the brake master cylinder. The brake fluid
reservoir stores your vehicle’s brake fluid and protects it so that your hydraulic braking system can
work properly.
