A vehicle is having its water pump replaced.
When the water pump is removed, severe
corrosion is found on the water pump
impeller, and inside the engine. Technician A
states that the radiator cap may be
overpressurizing the system. Technician B
states that the vehicle may have been run
with 100% water in the cooling system for
some time. 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
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
b. Technician B only
c. Both Technicians A and B
d. Neither Technician A nor B
While discussing relative humidity: Technician A says that the amount of moisture that air can hold is directly related to the temperature of the air. Technician B says that the colder the air is, the more moisture it can hold. Who is correct?

- Technician A says that the presence of oil around a fitting of an air-conditioning line may indicate an oil leak but not a refrigerant leak. Technician B says that using an electronic leak detector is the best way to find the source of a refrigerant leak. Who is correct? Technician A only Technician B only Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardWhich of the following statements best defines the term evacuation? A process in which the refrigerant in a system is released. A condition that exists when a compressor runs until there is no refrigerant left in the system. The process that pulls all traces of air and moisture from the system. A process that uses air to force moisture and dirt out of the system.arrow_forwardWhile checking the condition of a cars ATF: Technician A says that if the fluid has a dark brownish or blackish color and/or a burned odor, the fluid has been overheated. Technician B says that if the fluid has a milky color, this indicates that engine coolant has been leaking into the transrnissions cooler. Who is correct? a. Technician A only b. Technician B only c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- Technician A says that some refrigerant leaks can also be traced to pinholes in the evaporator caused by acid, which forms when water and refrigerant mix.
