AWS Automotive is a leading auto repair shop in Ojai ~ Ventura for the service, replacement, and repair of auto engines. The team of mechanics at our Ojai ~ Ventura auto repair shop appreciate and understand that the engine is the very heart of your car or truck. How does a vehicle’s engine work? The very purpose of an auto engine is to convert the heat produced by burning gasoline into the mechanical energy necessary to turn the wheels of your vehicle and get you around the streets of Ojai ~ Ventura. 1. The starter in your car or truck is what sets the engine in motion. The starter is connected to and turns the engine flywheel. 2. The engine flywheel in turn sets the engine crank shaft in motion. 3. The crank shaft then begins the process of moving the engine's pistons up and down in their respective cylinders. 4. The pumping motion of the pistons ultimately puts the car in motion through compression, combustion, and exhaust. 5. The engine itself is made up of two parts, the upper part being called the cylinder head, the lower part being called the cylinder block. The goal of our Ojai ~ Ventura automotive center is to keep the engine in your automobile in top performance condition. Our staff of auto technicians are professionally trained and certified in every aspect of auto engine repair and maintenance.
