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
Technician A says that you may be able to
smell antifreeze from a leaking heater core.
Technician B says that you may be able to
hear a loose belt when the engine is running.
Who is correct?
Select one:
a. Technician A only
b. Technician B only
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B
A technician is inspecting a vehicle and finds
the upper radiator hose is collapsed, and the
cooling system pulled into a vacuum when
cold. Technician A states that a leak in the
surge tank could be the cause. Technician B
states that the radiator cap is most likely
defective. Who is correct?
Select one:
a. Technician A only

- While discussing the results of an oil pressure test: Technician A says that when the fluid pressures are high, internal leaks, a clogged filter, low oil pump out put, or a faulty pressure regulator valve are indicated. Technician B says that if the fluid pressure increased at the wrong time, an internal leak at the servo or clutch seal is indicated. Who is correct? a. Technician A only b. Technician B only c.

- 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_forwardWhile diagnosing the cause of TCC shudder: Technician A checks the fluid pressure sent to the clutch. Technician B says that because the shudder occurs only after the clutch is engaged, the problem is the engine, transmission, or another component of the driveline.
