MOTOR:

1: Something, such as a machine or an engine, that produces or imparts motion.

2: A device that converts any form of energy into mechanical energy, especially an internal-combustion engine or an arrangement of coils and magnets that converts electric current into mechanical power.

3: A motor vehicle, especially an automobile: “It was a night of lovers. All along the highway... motors were parked and dim figures were clasped in revery� (Sinclair Lewis).


ENGINE:

1: a. A machine that converts energy into mechanical force or motion.

b. Such a machine distinguished from an electric, spring-driven, or hydraulic motor by its use of a fuel.




Actually you're wrong... a motor can refer to both. Feel free to argue that with a dictionary anytime though.

Care to guess what the "M" in "DMV" stands for?

The M stands for Moron...... I hate the DMV.... the only people allowed to work there are people with minus IQ numbers...
I went to the dmv once to get a non-op for a car i bought... the car had no engine... she wouldnt give me the cert till i had the car smogged..
.. :blink:, she just didnt seem to get the point that the car didnt run... i had to drag the car to a ref station for them to verify... the ref just rolled his eyes and signed it off.... and mumbled something about moron-counter-jockys...

Naiveté in grownups is often charming, but when coupled with vanity, it is indistinguishable from stupidity.
Tis better to remain silent and thought a fool - than to speak up and remove all doubt.
Did ever think that maybe you've been doing it wrong all these years?

Looks stock. I've got one sitting here and IIRC it's a few inches longer than the KZ one was.
