creates the pressure used to apply the breaks
power brake booster
uses vacuum to help the MC create pressure to apply the breaks
power steering pump
produces pressure to assist in turning
washer fluid container
holds washer fluid
radiator
allows heat to be removed from coolant by air flowing across the tubes and fins
radiator cap
increases pressure in cooling systems to raise boiling point
radiator hoses
transfers coolant from engine to radiator and back
coolant overflow container
collects extra coolant when the engine warms up
belts
transfers power from engine to drive the accessories- water pump, alternator, p/s pump, air pump, ac compressor
alternator
produces volts and amps to recharge the battery and run electrical systems
starter
engages with the flywheel to crank/turn the engine over
battery
stores electricity to run electrical systems and start car
positive cable
path of voltage to the starter
negative cable
path back to battery
distributor
holds ignition components that controls turning on and off the ignition coil
distributor cap
distributes ignition coil voltage to proper spark plug wire
ignition coil
makes up to 100,000 volts from 12 volts
spark plug wires/boots

allows air and or fuel to move into one cylinder at a time. it also allows external access to vacuum created by the engine
vacuum hoses
path for vacuum from the intake manifold to and component needing vacuum
electric wires
path for voltage and amperage to move in the electrical systems
carburetor/fuel injectors
mixes the proper amount of air and fuel into the cylinders
EGR valve
(exhaust gas recirculation) re-circulates some of the exhaust gases back into the engine to help cool down the cylinders to reduce exhaust pollutants
oxygen sensor
senses amount of oxygen in the exhaust system to increase or decrease the fuel mixture
thermostat housing
covers the thermostat
thermostat
controls the flow of coolant to the radiator through out the cooling system
fuel filter
filters dirt and grime from fuel before entering the carb or fuel injector
EFE canister
(early fuel evaporating) stores fuel vapor when the vehicle is turned off, then drawn back into fuel system after the vehicle is started
Valve covers
covers the top of the valves or OH cam shaft, keeps oil from leaking out the top of the engine
