The engine is the heart of your car and the most complex part of it! With so many components within an engine, as well as different specifications, makes, models and brands - knowing what the right parts are can be confusing.

When it comes to car engines, the most important thing to know is what type of engine your car needs. You can’t simply put any engine in your car and hope it runs, you need to ensure that it is compatible with your vehicle specifications. 

If you’re inexperienced with car engines, the best option is let a professional replace the engine for you. However, if you have to know-how to upgrade or replace the engine of your car yourself, you can find complete car engines and all the parts you need on eBay.

Types of engines

Petrol engines, as the name implies, run on petrol. They are the most common type of car engine. These engines are typically used in everyday commuter cars, including any smaller cars. Petrol engines use spark plugs, which ignite the air-fuel mixture to power the engine.

Diesel engines rely on heavily compressed air, which reaches a high enough temperature to cause ignition. Diesel engines are stronger and heavier than petrol engines, however, this also means they can be more expensive.

Both petrol and diesel engines are available on eBay from a variety of manufacturers, such as Ford, Audi, Volkswagen and BMW.

Engine parts

Most repairs or improvements you make to your car engine won’t require a complete overhaul. So instead of shopping for complete car engines, you can simply search by engine parts. Luckily, eBay has a wide range of essential engine parts, so you’ll be able to find exactly what you need. 

You can also shop for other vehicle parts and engines, such as truck and motorbike engines. Whatever you drive, eBay has all you need to keep it running smoothly.
