How do water and oil mix in a water cooled engine?
They do not mix, the oil and water circulate in separate closed systems within the engine block. The water is pumped through the radiator, then through special channels in the engine in order to cool it by means of heat transfer. The the oil is pumped from the oil pan to the head, pistons, crank, and other essential engine components. If the water and oil in your engine do happen to mix it's typically a problem due to a blown head gasket, or cracked or warped cylinder head. Failure to repair this condition can result in engine failure.
What is the most important part of an engine?
Depending on the type of engine, piston, turbine, external, rotary, among others there are numerous components to an engine without which the engine will not function. For example a typical piston cylinder engine(from any car) will not work without any of the following components-piston, carburetor/fuel injection, con-rod, crankshaft, inlet/exhaust valves, camshaft, camchain/timing belt. An engine is a complex device that requires many finely balanced components to work in harmony. But to pick the most important, it would probably be the crankshaft which is present in any type of engine in some shape or form.
