Remember, the Internet is your friend! Sites like How stuff works (http://www.howstuffworks.com) will help you understand the rudiments of the four stroke cycle, and internal combustion engines. Once you get a little more advanced you'll know what you want to know (more specifically than "what makes this happen what makes that happen") and it should be fairly simple to search out information on those specific subjects.

Well, I just went to amazon.com and browsed the automotive section for a few mintues and I came up with this one: Text Book (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1566375770/qid=1052412610/br=1-1/ref=br_lf_b_1//002-3860257-3209669?v=glance&s=books&n=13647)
It's kinda pricey, but thats because it's a hardcover textbook with problems and such just like a math book. But it looks good overall.
But you don't have to buy, it might be nice, but you could probably find something similar at your local library for free. Also check used book stores, they can be treasure troves for anything.

You're a bit young (born in 1988?)...I recommend you take one class of physics and one class of chemistry first because any other books you read because they require a basic understanding of physics/chem. I applaud your enthusiasm though.
I recommend you read the section on "gases" here (http://www.sparknotes.com/chemistry/),
And read the section on "Work, Energy, and Power" and "Linear momentum" here (http://www.sparknotes.com/physics/).
