The gas/oil mixture used in a two stroke engine has been properly mixed. The carburetor high speed & cruise circuit is adjusted to lean. Tech a says that the lean adjustment may cause the engine to fail due to improper lubrication: tech b says that it may cause the engine to fail because of overheating. Who is correct?
A six-cylinder engine has a 1 5 3 6 2 4 firing order. Technician A says that after cylinder number 1 begins its intake stroke, the crankshaft will have to travel 240° before cylinder number 3 begins its intake stoke. Technician B says that when cylinder number 3 and 4 are at TDC, cylinders number 5 and 2 are at BDC.
Who is correct and explain why?
Technician A
Technician B
Both A and B

- While determining the most likely problem of an engine with poor compression test results but acceptable cylinder leakage readings: Technician A says that the problem may be incorrect valve timing. Technician B says that the problem is worn valve seats. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhile diagnosing the cause for an engine having good results from a compression test and cylinder leakage test but poor results from a cylinder power balance test: Technician A says that incorrect valve timing is the most likely cause. Technician B says that a severely worn cam lobe is a likely cause. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhile determining the cause for air leaking out of the oil throttle body during a cylinder leakage test: Technician A says that a burnt intake valve is indicated. Technician B says that a warped cylinder head or bad head gasket is indicated. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- Technician A says an engine may use one or more valve springs per valve. Technician B says additional valve springs are used to control vibration and increase total pressure. Who is correct? a. Technician A b. Technician B c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhile discussing the causes of extreme engine bearing damage Technician A says that contaminated and old engine oil could be the cause. Technician B says that a leaking radiator could be the cause. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is incorrect? Cylinder head bolts must be tightened to the proper amount of torque. Most cylinder head bolts are tightened in a sequence that starts on one end. On some engines, the head bolts are retorqued after the engine has been run and is hot. Many engines use head bolts of different lengths.arrow_forward
- Which of the following are not typically found in the block of a modern engine? a. Pistons b. Crankshaft c. Valves d. Oil pumparrow_forwardWhile discussing the common causes for cracks developing in a cylinder block or head: Technician A says that the chilling of a hot engine by a sudden rush of cold water or air over the surf ace may cause cracking. Technician B says that excessive overheating is a common cause. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhile diagnosing an engine that overheats after frequent hard accelerations: Technician A checks for a collapsed lower radiator hose. Technician B checks the cooling fan electrical circuit. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- While 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_forwardWhen conducting an oil pressure test: Technician A says that lower than normal pressure can be caused by faulty piston oil rings. Technician B says that lower than normal oil pressure can be caused by excessive engine bearing clearances. Who is correct? Technician A Both A and B Technician B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhile looking at the results of an oil pressure test: Technician A says that higher than normal readings can be caused by using oil that is too thin. Technician B says that higher than normal readings can be expected on a cold engine. Who is correct? Technician A Technician Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward
