A.
Intake Stroke
B.
Compression Stroke
C.
Power Stroke
D.
Exhaust Stroke
13.
Describe the four (4) stroke cycle.
Intake Stroke: The intake valve opens, and the piston moves downward, creating a vacuum in the cylinder.
This allows the air-fuel mixture to enter the combustion chamber from the intake manifold.
Compression Stroke: Both the intake and exhaust valves are closed, and the piston moves upward,
compressing the air-fuel mixture. This increases the pressure and temperature inside the cylinder.
Power Stroke: When the piston reaches the top of the compression stroke, the spark plug ignites the compressed
air-fuel mixture. The resulting explosion forces the piston back down, generating power that drives the crankshaft
.
Exhaust Stroke: As the piston moves upward again, the exhaust valve opens, and the remaining
combustion gases are expelled from the cylinder into the exhaust manifold. This prepares the cylinder for
the next intake stroke.

Give some examples of abnormal engine noises, including a description of the sound, and their likely causes
below.
Type
Sound
Mostly Heard During
Possible Causes
Ring noise
A
continuous
metallic scraping
or scuffing noise.
Particularly noticeable
at higher RPMs, when
the engine is under
load
or
during
sustained operation.
Typically, this is caused by worn piston rings
or a damaged cylinder wall. The piston rings
may be failing to lubricate or seal correctly,
leading to metal-to-metal contact.
Piston slap
A distinct slapping
or tapping noise.
Immediately
after
starting a cold engine
and tends to reduce as
the engine warms up.
Often referred to as "piston slap", this noise is
more pronounced when there's significant
piston-to-wall clearance, especially when cold.
As the piston warms up and expands, the
noise diminishes.
Piston pin knock
The noise is a
distinct
metallic
knocking
or
tapping sound. It's
different from the
deeper knocking
sound you'd hear
from a rod bearing.
The sound can
sometimes
be
mistaken for valve
Cold Start: The knock
might
be
more
noticeable during a
cold
start
when
clearances are at their
maximum due to lower
temperatures.
As
components warm up
and expand, the noise
might diminish.
Idle and Low RPM:
Worn Piston Pin: Over time, the piston pin can
wear out, leading to increased clearance.
Worn or Damaged Piston Pin Bushings: The
bushings are there to reduce friction and
prevent wear. If they're damaged or worn out,
excessive play can develop.
Improper Assembly: If the piston pin hasn't
been assembled correctly, or if the retaining
clips are missing or damaged, it can lead to

train noise, but it
usually
has
a
sharper tone.
Piston pin knock is
often more pronounced
at idle and low RPMs.
It can sometimes be
drowned out or less
noticeable as engine
speed increases.
Under Load: When
accelerating or when
the engine is under
load, the stresses on
the
piston
and
connecting
rod
increase, which might
amplify the knock.
knocking.
Insufficient Lubrication: A lack of proper
lubrication can lead to premature wear of the
pin and its associated components.
Thermal Expansion Mismatch: If there's a
significant mismatch in the thermal expansion
rates between the piston and the pin, it can
cause binding or clearance issues when the
engine heats up.
Main
bearing
noise
The noise from
worn or damaged
main bearings is
typically a deep,
rumbling
knock.
This is a lower
frequency sound
compared to the
sharper
noise
associated
with
rod bearings or
other components
like valve train
noises.
Idle and Low RPM:
Main bearing noise is
often most pronounced
during idle or low
RPMs. It might get
drowned out or change
in character as engine
speed increases.
Constant Speed or
Under Load: The noise
can
be noticeable
when the engine is
held at a constant
speed, especially when
under
load.
For
instance, maintaining a
specific RPM while
driving
uphill
can
amplify the knock.
Start-up: Sometimes,
the noise might be
more pronounced right
after
starting
the
engine, especially if oil
has drained from the
bearings and the initial
lubrication
upon
starting isn't optimal.
Worn Bearings: Bearings wear out over time,
especially if an engine has run for a very long
mileage or has been subjected to harsh
conditions.
Insufficient Lubrication: A lack of proper
lubrication can lead to premature bearing wear
or damage. This can be caused by low oil
levels, poor oil quality, or oil contamination.
Oil Clearance Issues: If there's excessive
clearance between the bearing and the
crankshaft, it can result in knocking.
Overloading: Placing excessive loads on the
engine, especially if it's not designed for such
loads, can strain and wear out the bearings
faster.
Engine Overheating: Persistent overheating
conditions can compromise the lubrication
quality and accelerate bearing wear.
Debris: Foreign particles in the oil can embed
into or score the bearings, leading to noise.
Rod bearing noise
The noise from
worn or damaged
rod bearings is
usually a sharp,
distinctive knock.
This "rod knock" is
a
higher-pitched
sound compared
to the deeper
rumble of main
bearing noise.
Acceleration:
Rod
knock is often most
pronounced
during
acceleration, especially
under load.
Idle: The noise might
be noticeable at idle
but can change in
character
or
get
drowned out as engine
speed increases.
Specific RPM Range:
Worn Bearings: Over time and with extended
mileage, bearings can wear down.
Insufficient Lubrication: Poor lubrication,
whether due to low oil levels, poor oil quality,
or blocked oil passages, can lead to
premature bearing wear.
Oil Contamination: Debris or contaminants in
the oil can cause accelerated bearing wear.
Detonation
or
Pre-ignition:
Abnormal
combustion can place extra stress on the

be
more
pronounced

After a Cold Start:
Immediately
after
starting the engine,
especially if it's been
sitting for a while, the
noise might be more

lack of lubrication.
connecting rods and their bearings.
Over-revving: Pushing the engine beyond its
designed RPM range can strain the rod
bearings.
Engine Overheating: Persistent overheating
can compromise lubrication and put added
stress on bearings.
Incorrect Bearing Size: If bearings were
replaced previously and the wrong size was
used, it could lead to excessive clearance and
knock.
Thrust
bearing
noise
The noise from
worn or damaged
thrust
bearings
often manifests as
a
low-pitched
rumbling
or
grinding noise.
Clutch
Engagement
and Disengagement:
One of the most
common times to hear
thrust bearing noise is
when the clutch is
engaged
or
disengaged. Pressing
and
releasing
the
clutch pedal can cause
the noise to appear or
change in pitch.
Idle: The noise might
be detectable during
idle,
especially
in
neutral with the clutch
engaged.
Sudden
Load
Changes:
Rapid
changes in engine
load, such as sudden
acceleration
or
deceleration, can make
the noise more evident.
Stationary: Sometimes,
the noise can be more
pronounced when the
vehicle is stationary
and the engine is
running,
especially
when
actions
are
performed that put
axial load on the
crankshaft,
like
engaging the clutch.
Worn or Damaged Bearing Surfaces: Like any
bearing, thrust bearings can wear out over
time.
Insufficient Lubrication: Inadequate oil quality
or quantity can lead to premature bearing
wear.
Excessive Axial Load: If there's too much
endplay in the crankshaft or excessive force
from the clutch assembly, it can put undue
pressure on the thrust bearings.
Misaligned Components: Misalignment of the
engine and transmission or any components
related to the clutch and gearbox can put
sideways stress on the crankshaft, affecting
the thrust bearings.
Improper Installation: If the thrust bearing was
not installed correctly during a previous repair
or engine assembly, it can lead to premature
wear or failure.
Tappet noise
The noise is a
rhythmic ticking or
Wear and Tear: Tappets, like any mechanical
component, can wear out over time, leading to

tapping sound. It
usually maintains
pace with engine
RPM and can vary
in loudness.
Cold Start: The noise
can
be
more
pronounced during a
cold start, especially if
oil has drained away
from the tappets or if
the oil is too thick due
to cold temperatures.
As the engine warms
up and oil circulates,
the
noise
might
diminish.
Idle and Low RPM:
Tappet noise is often
more noticeable at idle
and low RPMs. It can
become more rapid as
the
engine
speed
increases but might get
drowned out or change
in character at higher
RPMs.
Consistent
RPM:
Sometimes,
maintaining a steady
RPM, especially in a
mid-range, can make

apparent.
increased clearances and noise.
Low Oil Level or Poor Oil Quality: Inadequate
lubrication can prevent hydraulic tappets from
functioning
correctly,
leading
to
the
characteristic ticking noise.
Oil Contamination: Sludge or contaminants in
the oil can block the tiny passages in hydraulic
tappets, affecting their operation.
Excessive Valve Clearance: If the clearance
between the tappet and the valve stem is too
large, due to wear or improper adjustment, it
can result in tappet noise.
Failed or Collapsed Lifter: In engines with
hydraulic lifters, a lifter can collapse due to
wear or lack of oil pressure, leading to noise.
Camshaft Wear: Worn camshaft lobes can
result in irregular tappet movement, causing
noise.
Timing chain noise
Timing chain noise
often presents as
a rattling, grinding,
or whining sound.
Depending on the
specific issue, it
can be continuous
or intermittent.
Startup: The noise can
be
particularly
noticeable
when
starting the engine,
especially
if
the
tensioners
are
hydraulic and take a
moment to build up
pressure.
Idle and Low RPMs:
Often, timing chain
noise
is
more
pronounced at idle and
low RPMs, where other
engine noises are less
likely to drown it out.
Under
Load:
Sometimes, the noise
might become more
apparent when the
engine is under load,
such
as
during
acceleration.
Constant
Speed:
Maintaining a steady
Stretched Timing Chain: Over time, the chain
can stretch, leading to slack and resulting in
noise.
Worn Chain Guides or Tensioners: These
parts help maintain proper chain tension and
alignment. If they wear out, the chain may
become loose and produce noise.
Insufficient Lubrication: Inadequate lubrication
can cause increased friction and wear, leading
to noise.
Damaged Sprockets: Wear or damage to the
sprockets can lead to misalignment or
improper engagement with the chain, causing
noise.
Incorrect Timing: If the timing chain is
improperly aligned, it might cause irregular
noise and affect engine performance.

74.
Name three (3) areas on the cylinder head where cracks are most likely to occur?
1
Combustion chamber: Cracks can develop in the combustion chamber due to the high temperatures and
pressures generated during the combustion process. These cracks may be near the spark plug hole or in
the areas surrounding the valves
.
2
Coolant passages: Coolant passages in the cylinder head can develop cracks, especially if the engine
has experienced overheating or coolant-related issues. Cracks in these areas can lead to coolant leaks
or mixing of coolant and engine oil.
3
Exhaust ports: The exhaust ports, where the exhaust gases exit the cylinder head, are subjected to high
temperatures. Over time, thermal stress and cycling can cause cracks to form in this area, leading to
exhaust leaks or other performance issues.
75.
What is the most common cause of warpage in an aluminium cylinder head?
Overheating is the most common cause of warpage in aluminium cylinder heads.
Aluminium has high thermal expansion, leading to uneven expansion and contraction.

To prevent engine damage after it has been rebuilt and to ensure good initial oil control and long engine life,
the proper break-in procedure must be followed. Describe what is the proper break-in procedure?
Use recommended break-in oil and avoid excessive idling.
Gradually increase RPM and load, but avoid heavy loads and high RPMs.
Monitor oil levels and temperature, and follow manufacturer's recommendations for break-in duration and
procedures.
88.
What the is objective of the break-in procedure?
The objective of the break-in procedure is to allow the newly rebuilt engine's components to properly wear
in and establish optimal contact and sealing surfaces. This promotes good initial oil control, piston ring
seating, and overall longevity of the engine. The break-in procedure helps ensure that the engine operates
smoothly, maintains proper lubrication, and minimizes the risk of premature component wear or damage

QUESTION 2
A company needs to choose one supplier for a particular type of silicon wafer used'in the production of
semiconductors. The company has three options. Supplier A sells the silicon wafers for $2.50 per wafer,
independently of the number of wafers ordered. Supplier B sells the wafers for $2.40 each but does not
consider an order for less than 2,000 wafers. Supplier C sells the wafers for $2.30 each but does not accept
an order for less than 3,000 wafers. Assume an order setup cost of $100 and an annual requirement of 20,000
wafers. Assume a 20% annual interest rate for holding cost calculations.
a. Which supplier should be chosen to minimize the total annual cost for the wafers, and what is the
optimal order quantity?
