Welcome to teach me how to buggie

The reason why I picked this subject for my blog was the complexity of an engine. I would like to learn more about engines and how it all works in to a sequence. I would like to learn about how the engine work and all of its components order for it to exact ally make a truck work and drive.  The reason why I would like to learn this is to save money from the costly auto repair shops charge to fix a vehicle because I am more of a do-it-yourself type of guy. I like to save money every chance I get in order to enjoy more stuff that I do. I would also like to learn about how the engine works because I could help friends out with their vehicle if it was to break down or needs a replacement part to help save them some money from the auto repair shop. I know a little bit about an engine but not all of it. The only parts that I really know under the hood are alternator, starter, headers, air filters, etc. I also know a little about the drive train such as the transmission, driveshaft, rear differential, transfer case. Front differential, etc. I would like to know how mud and water can ruin all types of components under the car and would like to know trouble shooting step on finding and fixing parts on a truck. I would like to know why the gears in the differentials make such more of a difference off-road. How lockers are another addition in to the differential that you can add to get the maximum of your gears from slipping and causing you to get stock and stranded in the mud. Thanks for reading this and hopefully I can get some more advice on all of this information on engines and how it works. Thank you have a nice day J
