While discussing ignition timing control in EI systems: Technician A says that when the engine coolant temperature is low, the timing is retarded until normal operating temperature is reached. Technician B says that the PCM will retard the timing during EGR operation. Who is correct?
Technician Ac.Both A and B
b. Technician B d. Neither A nor B
While discussing the compression ratios used with engines equipped with a GDI system: Technician A says that higher ratios can be used because ignition timing is normally very advanced. Technician B says that higher ratios are possible because the small droplets of fuel injected directly into the cylinder tend to cool the mixture in the cylinder. Who is correct?a.tech a
b.tech b
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?arrow_forwardWhile 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_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. Who is correct?arrow_forward
- While discussing how to test a Hall-effect crankshaft position sensor: Technician A says that a logic probe can be used. Technician B says that a DMM can be used. Who is correct? a. Technician A b. Technician B c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forwardTechnician 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 Barrow_forwardWhich of the following ensures proper timing of the intake and exhaust valve events? The length of the tappets relative to the pushrods. Proper pairing of the gear set joining the crankshaft to the camshaft. The pulse timer mounted in series with the piston. The installation of the flywheel key.arrow_forward
- Technician A says there is less heat energy in high octane gasoline and, therefore less power is genorated during combustion. Technician B says usung a higher octane gasoline than required will not produce more power inless the engine has a knock sensor that allows the system to adjust ignition timing to take advantage of the higher octane. who is correct?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_forwardA digital speedometer constantly reads 0 mph : TechnicianA says that the problem may be the vehiclespeed sensor. Technician B says that the problem maybe the throttle position sensor. Who is correct?a. Technician Ab. Technician Bc. Both A and Bd. Neither A nor Barrow_forward
- 1) What is the effect if it occurs error data reading on Throttle Position Sensors? 2) What are the effects of accelerating and slow ignition timing?arrow_forwardA six-cylinder engine has a 1 5 3 6 2 4 firing order. Technician A says that after cylinder number 1 begins its intake stroke, the crankshaft will have to travel 240° before cylinder number 3 begins its intake stoke. Technician B says that when cylinder number 3 and 4 are at TDC, cylinders number 5 and 2 are at BDC. Who is correct and explain why? Technician A Technician B Both A and B Neither A nor Barrow_forwardTechnician A says that some systems use a special modulated shift control solenoid. Technician B says that some systems use a special modulated converter clutch control solenoid. Who is correct? Technician A says that shift solenoids direct fluid flow to and away from the apply devices in the transmission. Technician B says that shift solenoids are used to mechanically apply a friction brake or multiple-disc clutch assembly. Who is correct? Technician A says that throttle position is an important input in most electronic shift control systems. Technician B says that vehicle speed is an important input for most electronic shift control systems. Who is correct? Technician A says that a faulty TP sensor can cause delayed shifts. Technician B says that delayed shifts can be caused by an open shift solenoid. Who is correct? Technician A says that some shift solenoids can be activated by providing a ground for the solenoid. Technician B says that some shift solenoids can be activated by…arrow_forward
