Looking for info on how engines work
 
I'm looking for information on how truck engines work, what its various components' functions are etc, as I'm quite technologically challenged. Do any of you folks know of any website which would explain things in layman's terms ? Thanks in advance.

Here's the most understandable explanation I've found yet...

HowStuffWorks "How Diesel Engines Work"
