    The core of an engine is the cylinder, where the piston moves up and down. Most lawn mower engines have one cylinder, while cars commonly have between four to eight cylinders arranged in one of three configurations: inline, where cylinders are in a single line; V, where cylinders are split into two angled banks; or flat, where cylinders are split into two opposing banks.

    Basic Engine Parts

    The core of the engine is the cylinder, with the piston moving up and down
    inside the cylinder. The engine described above has one cylinder. That is
    typical of most lawn mowers, but most cars have more than one cylinder (four,
    six and eight cylinders are common). In a multi-cylinder engine, the cylinders
    usually are arranged in one of three ways: inline, V or flat (also known as
    horizontally opposed or boxer), as shown in the following figures.

    Inline - The cylinders are arranged in a line in a single bank.


    V - The cylinders are arranged in two banks set at an angle to one another.
    Flat - The cylinders are arranged in two banks on opposite sides of the engine
