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?
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?
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?

- When 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_forwardWhen the starter spins but does not crank the engine, which of the following may be true? Defective starter relay Damaged flywheel teeth A faulty starter solenoid All of the abovearrow_forwardCranking 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_forward
- 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 Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_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_forwardWhile discussing a no-crank condition: Technician A says to verify the condition of the batten' before testing the starter motor Technician B says a scan tool may be used to check starter control circuit operation. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- While installing a timing belt: Technician A installs the belt, turns the crankshaft two full rotations, then applies tension to the belt. Technician B installs the belt, applies tension, then turns the crankshaft two full rotations. Who is correct? a. Technician A b. Technician B c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forwardTechnician A says that a starter no-load test is conducted with the starter in a bench vise. Technician B says that the no-load test is used to determine starter motor circuit voltage drop. Who is correct? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardExplain the operation of a magneto ignition system used in starting a piston engine.arrow_forward
- Which of the following statements about engines is not true? The engine provides the rotating power to drive the wheels through the transmission and driving axle. Only gasoline engines are classified as internal combustion. The combustion chamber is the space between the top of the piston and the cylinder head. For the combustion in the cylinder to take place completely and efficiently, air and fuel must be combined in the right proportions.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is not a true statement about thermostats? Faulty thermostats are often the cause of air pockets in the coolant passages. They can also cause an increase in fuel consumption and poor engine performance. If the thermostat is stuck open, the coolant may not reach the desired temperature because it is cooled before it gets hot If a thermostat is stuck closed, coolant will not flow between the engine and radiator and the engine will quickly overheatarrow_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_forward
