*What is the motor octane rating of the gas?
*"I need a new cam for my engine. OK, what motor do you have?"
*Is a 6" rod a good choice for my engine?
*"I completed an engine swap. Good deal, what motor did you install?"

An engine is a motor that converts thermal energy to mechanical work. a motor is a machine that converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy. ergo, an engine is a motor but a motor is not an engine.

Larry,
This lock down is getting to you, huh. I know it is to me. I've been doing a lot of politicking on FB and have become hated in some circles. As if I care.

I always said a motor uses an extension cord. An engine doesn't..
