While discussing GDI systems: Technician A says that this type of system allows engines to run at very lean air-fuel ratios and at higher-than-normal compression ratios. Technician B says that GDI systems eliminate the need to have an EGR valve on the engine. Who is correct?
Technician A says that only offshore engines are permitted to use port-helix metering fuel systems on
EPA MY 2010 compliant and later engines. Technician B says that port-helix metering injection
pumps can be used on current diesel engines when the peak power rating is less than 70 BHP (52 kW).
Who is correct?
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?

- 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.
