- Technician A says that if the PCV valve or connecting hoses become clogged, excessive pressure will develop in the crankcase and can cause oil leaks. Technician B says that if the PCV valve or connecting hoses become clogged, oil may be pushed into the air cleaner or cause it to be drawn into the intake manifold. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about the purpose of a cylinder head gasket is not true? 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_forwardHow should the oil pump be primed when installing it into the engine?arrow_forward
- Which of the following statements about engines is not true? The engine provides the rotating power to drive the wheels through the transmission and driving axle. Only gasoline engines are classified as internal combustion. The combustion chamber is the space between the top of the piston and the cylinder head. For the combustion in the cylinder to take place completely and efficiently, air and fuel must be combined in the right proportions.arrow_forward(4.)Explain how to move the vehicle in reverse at variable speeds with the engine at idlearrow_forwardwhat is tappet clearance and how it can be maintained to run the engine smoothlyarrow_forward
