How does the egine make the car move?
The engine has a crankshaft that is connected to all the pistons in the engine. When the engine is running the pistons are moving up and down and are turning this crankshaft. The crankshaft in turn is spinning a shaft connected to the transmission. The transmission is turning a driveshaft that is connected to the differential which in turn is turning an axle connected to the wheels.

When a four cylinder engine is operating at 5500 rpm the camshaft is turning at the rate of?
Half the speed of the crankshaft, 2750 rpm.
What is the name for the amount of turning force exerted by the crankshaft?
The name for the amount of turning force exerted by the crankshaft is torque. Torque is a rotational force that causes an object to rotate around an axis or pivot point. In an engine, torque is what generates power to move the vehicle.
Which way does the crankshaft movie inside the engine?
Looking from the front of the motor it is turning clockwise, sitting in drivers seat it is counter-clockwise.
What is the force that keeps the crankshaft turning?
The force that keeps the crankshaft turning is generated by the combustion of fuel in the engine cylinders. This force causes pistons to move, which in turn drives the crankshaft, converting the up and down motion of the pistons into rotational motion.
What if your 96 Legacy has no spark?
check the crankshaft and/or camshaft position sensors, if they are not working the ECU will not "see" the engine turning, therefore no need to spark..
