章节摘录

　　The starting system is responsible for getting the engine started （Figure 6-2）. When the ignitionkey is turned to the start position， a small amount of current from the battery flows to a solenoid orrelay. This activates the solenoid or relay and closes another electrical circuit that allows full batteryvoltage to reach the starter motor. The starter motor then rotates the flywheel mounted on the rear of the crankshaft. As the crankshaft turns， the pistons move through their strokes. At the correct time for each cylinder， the ignition system provides the spark to ignite the air-fuel mixture. If goodcombustion takes place， the engine will now rotate on its own without the need of the starter motor.The ignition key is now allowed to return to the "on" position. From this point on， the engiiae willcontinue to run until the ignition key is turned off. The electrical power for the engine and the rest of the car comes from the cars battery. The battery is especially important for the operation of the starting system. While the starter is rotating the crankshaft， it uses a lot of electricity. This tends to lower the amount of power in the battery. Therefore， a system is needed to recharge the battery so that engine starts can be made in the future.
