Textbook Question
Chapter 26, Problem 8ASRQ
While discussing El systems: Technician A says that when the engine is being cranked, the PCM relies only on the signals from the ECT to determine initial ignition timing. Technician B says that when an engine is initially started and is running at a predetermined speed, the PCM looks at several inputs, including engine speed, load, throttle position, and engine coolant temperature, and makes adjustments accordingly. Who is correct?
a. Technician A
b. Technician B
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B

While discussing SFI systems: Technician A says that when the injection system fires according to crankshaft position and speed, it is operating in the synchronous mode. Technician B says that one of the advantages of SFI systems is that they are always in the synchronous mode. Who is correct?
While discussing ignition timing control in EI systems: Technician A says that when the engine coolant temperature is low, the timing is retarded until normal operating temperature is reached. Technician B says that the PCM will retard the timing during EGR operation. Who is correct?

- While discussing the compression ratios used with engines equipped with a GDI system: Technician A says that higher ratios can be used because ignition timing is normally very advanced. Technician B says that higher ratios are possible because the small droplets of fuel injected directly into the cylinder tend to cool the mixture in the cylinder. Who is correct?a.tech a b.tech b c. Both a and b d. Neither a nor barrow_forwardExplain staged and continuously variable value timing systems.arrow_forwardWhile diagnosing an idle speed problem: Technician A says that higher-than-normal TP signals at idle will cause the IAC to close, which will decrease idle speed. Technician B says that if the resistance of the ECT is too low, a lower-than-normal voltage signal is sent to the PCM, which interprets this as a hot engine and will close the IAC to decrease speed. Who is correct? a. Technician A b. Technician B c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forward
