Chapter 10, Problem 2ASRQ
While 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

Students have asked these similar questions
A vehicle has had several radiator
replacements, and each time there has been
pinhole leaks in the aluminum. Technician A
states that the engine coolant may need to be
exchanged more often. Technician B states
that the engine grounds should be inspected
closely since this could be the cause. Who is
correct?
Select one:
a. Technician A only
b. Technician B only
c. Both Technicians A and B
d. Neither Technician A nor B
Why is it important to loosen the cylinder head bolts in the recommended order?
Carbon deposits on the intake valve or seat may cause the valve not to close properly. Tech a says that the flywheel will be harder to spin when starting the engine. Tech b says that the engine will loose power. Who is correct?

- While 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_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_forwardTechnician A says that if an engine had good results from a compression test, it will have good results from a cylinder leakage test Technician B says that if an engine had good results from a cylinder leakage test, it will have good results from a running compression test Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- While 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_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 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_forward
- Which 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_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_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_forward
- Which of the following is not a common way to identify the location of cracks in the engine block or cylinder head? Pressure checks Vacuum test Magnetic particle inspection Penetrativearrow_forwardTechnician 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_forwardThe CV joint boots on the left side of a vehicle appear to be squeezed together; the boots on the right side of the vehicle appear to be stretched apart. Technician A says that one or more of the engine/transaxle's mounts may be broken. Technician B says that one or more of the engine/transaxle's subframe mounts may be broken. Who is correct? O a. A only O b.B only C. Both A and B O d. Neither A nor Barrow_forward
