It transforms the energy, stored in the fuel, into mechanical energy, thanks to very rapid combustions. The movement of most engines is divided into four stages: Admission of a mixture of air and fuel (petrol engines) or air (Diesel engines) into the inlet pipe or valve, involving the descent of the piston. Compression of air or mixture by raising the piston. Engine time: fuel injection, combustion and expansion. It is combustion, pushing back the piston, that releases energy and initiates movement. Exhaust of burnt gases, thanks to the opening of the valve and the rise of the piston. All the parts for your engine are available from your Autodistribution distributor . CYLINDER HEAD TURBO The turbocharger, or turbo , is used to increase the power of the engine by increasing the pressure of the gases admitted into it. This compressor is driven by a turbine (hence the name) driven by the speed of the exhaust gases.

The EGR valves are often the subject of problems because they tend to get dirty quickly, causing a decrease in mobility of the valves, thus diverting an excessive amount of gas in the engine.
