An engine cranks slowly: Technician A says that a possible cause of the problem is poor starter circuit connections. Technician B says that an engine problem could be the cause. Who is correct?
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
An engine starts and runs briefly after a small quantity of fuel is put into the spark plug hole, but it doesn't not start when fuel is added to the carburetor throat. Tech a says that the problem may be that the exhaust valve is not closing completely due to carbon buildup. Tech b says it may be due to a defective carburetor mounting gasket. Who is correct?

- Cranking current is excessive but is normal when the starter is bench tested: Technician A says the problem could be with the positive battery connection to the solenoid. Technician B says there could be an engine mechanical problem. Who is correct? a. Technician A b. Technician B c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forwardAn engine overheats in traffic but is fine when driving: Technician A says a faulty thermostat may be the cause. Technician B says the fan clutch could be the cause. Who is correct? a. Technician A b. Technician B c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forwardIf the solenoid clicks while trying to crank the engine with the starter, which of the following is not a probable cause? A faulty neutral safety switch Low battery voltage Low voltage available to the solenoid An open in the hold-in windingarrow_forward
- Technician A says that broken engine mounts can cause the fan to hit the shroud. Technician B says that missing or broken air dams can cause an engine to overheat. Who is correct? Select one: a. Technician A only b. Technician B only c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhen diagnosing a no-crank no-start condition, no voltage is present at the S terminal of the solenoid while attempting to crank the engine. Technician A says a faulty starter motor is the cause. Technician B says a shorted safety switch is the cause. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardTechnician A says that if a drive belt does not have the proper tension, it may produce squealing and chirping noises. Technician B says belt tension should be checked even if the engine has an automatic belt tensioner. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- While discussing ignition timing requirements: Technician A says that more advanced timing is desired when the engine is under a heavy load. Technician B says that more advanced timing is desired when the engine is running at high engine speeds. Who is correct?arrow_forwardA 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 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
- 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?arrow_forwardTrue or False? To eliminate the drain of engine power during times when cooling fan operation is not needed, many of todays belt-driven fans have a fan clutch that prevents the operation of the fan when the engine and radiator are heated up.arrow_forwardCarbon 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?arrow_forward
