Pinion gear-to-flywheel ring gear clearance is beingdiscussed: Technician A says that if there is too muchclearance, there will be a high pitch while the enginecranks. Technician B says that if there is too littleclearance, there will be a high pitch noise after theengine is started. Who is correct?a. Technician Ab. Technician Bc. Both A and Bd. Neither A nor B
While inspecting a planetary gear-type final drive, Technician A says blackened pinion shafts indicate severe overloading. Technician B says bluish gears indicate overheating. Who is correct?
When discussing the various gear positions of a transfer case, Technician A says that when the transfer case is in low, the overall gear ratio is numerically increased. Technician B says that when the transfer case is in the high position, the vehicle operates in an overdrive mode due to the decrease in torque multiplication. Who is correct?
