Your car's wheels are connected to the axle which is rotated by the driveshaft. The rotating axle then turns the wheels of the car.

1. Telescopic magnetic pickup
   Needle nose pliers
2. Hand grab
   None of the above

Working within the confines of an engine can mean you drop little pieces (think screws and small nuts). A telescopic magnetic pick-up can get into hard-to-reach places and pick them up.

1. Reverse-drive car
   Rear-wheel drive car
2. Backseat-drive car
   None of the above

When the back axle is turned by the driveshaft, the vehicle is a rear-wheel drive.

1. Differential
   Axel
2. Transmission
   Clutch plate

An important part of the drive system on a car, the differential allows for wheels to rotate at different speeds on the axle, for instance, when turning around a corner.

1. V8
   W16
2. Boxter
   Rotary

V8 engines are powerful and a favorite of muscle car enthusiasts. Most of the famed muscle cars of the '60s and '70s used V8 engines. V8 engines have eight cylinders arranged in a V.

1. Glowplug
   Spark plug
2. Car fuse
   Fuel injector

Fuses often blow and could mean that your brake lights or turn indicators do not work. Always keep a few handy and replace them yourself.

1. Exhaust valve
   Distributor
2. Crankshaft
   Carburetor

Cars without fuel injection have a carburetor which ensures the right amount of fuel/air mix is combusted.

1. Voltmeter
   Electrical continuity tester
2. Hydrometer
   None of the above

Need to test how much charge your battery is holding? A battery hydrometer will tell you. Although certainly not a necessity, it is a nice bit of kit for your motorcycle toolbox.

1. Sump
   Gas tank
2. Radiator
   Engine block

The radiator, normally positioned in front of the engine, is the reservoir that holds coolant. This is circulated through the engine when needed to keep it operating at the proper temperature.

1. Drill
   Impact gun
2. Buffer
   None of the above

The perfect way to loosen and tighten bolts - the impact gun!

1. X
   Y
2. V
   Z

Each arrangement for cylinders within an engine has its unique pros and cons.

1. Connecting rod
   Crankshaft
2. Piston
   Cylinder head

The piston, moving within the cylinder is what creates compression of the air/fuel mixture which is then combusted and burns away to provide power.

1. Exhaust manifold
   Fan belt
2. Crankshaft
   Piston

The timing belt, linked to the crankshaft and camshaft, ensures that the engine fires at the right time. This keeps the valves and pistons in sync and means the engine operates at 100 percent efficiency.

1. Brown paper bag
   Plastic bag
2. 500 ml glass
   Draining pan

Although not a necessity (you could use a large plastic container), a draining pan is the best way to catch the oil running out of a sump.

2. V16
   V8

A boxer engine has horizontally opposed pistons. This engine type is found in some Porsche models and in BMW motorcycles.

1. Rotary
   W16
