true or false
A compression test gave the following results: cylinder #1 = 155, cylinder #2 = 140, cylinder #3 = 110, cylinder #4 = 105. Technician A says that a defective (burned) valve is the most likely cause. Technician B says that a leaking head gasket could be the cause.

47 degrees
23 degrees
None of these
37 degrees
Varies by tube diameter

- Technician A uses adhesives to hold gaskets in place while installing them. Technician B uses RTV sealant on all surfaces that are prone to leaks. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhile discussing the reasons for resurfacing a cylinder head; Technician A says it should be resurfaced to make it flat and very smooth so the head gasket can seal properly during engine assembly. Technician B says that it can be resurfaced to raise the compression. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhile discussing thread sealants and lubricants: Technician A says that antiseize compound is used where a bolt might become difficult to remove after a period of time.

It seals intake stroke vacuum, combustion pressure, and the heat of combustion. It prevents coolant leakage and resists rust, corrosion and, in many cases, meters coolant flow. It allows for lateral and vertical head movement as the engine heats and cools. It meters lubricating oil onto the engines cylinder walls.arrow_forwardThe piston rings are used to act as a seal between the piston and cylinder head a. FALSE b. TRUEarrow_forward
