ASE 1 - Engine Performance Questions and Answers Already Passed 2. A technician is checking for piston ring groove clearance. The proper technique includes A. The old ring and a feeler gauge. B. T... he new ring and a feeler gauge. C. Only a feeler gauge. D. No feeler gauge is required. ✔✔Answer B is correct. Clean the pistons in a cold tank and then clean the grooves with a ring groove cleaner before measuring. 3. A cylinder power balance test is being performed on a vehicle with sequential fuel injection. The number five cylinder's rpm drop is less than all of the others. Technician A says this could be the result of a restriction in the fuel injector. Technician B says this could be caused by leaking secondary insulation. Who is correct? A. Technician A B. Technician B C. Both A and B D. Neither A or B ✔✔Answer C is correct. Both restricted fuel injectors and leaking secondary wires will reduce the cylinder's contribution. Anything that would have an affect on the cylinder's power. It could be mechanical like a faulty valve, possibly the ignition, or the fuel mixture affecting this cylinder's power output. 4. A turbocharger wastegate is sticking. Technician A says a stuck open wastegate will result in overboost. Technician B says a stuck closed wastegate will result in an underboost condition. Who is correct? ✔✔Neither technician is correct. 5. Technician A says a supercharger uses an intercooler to keep the engine's oil cool. Technician B says intercoolers are used on turbochargers to keep the oil cool. Who is correct? ✔✔Neither technician is correct. 6. A wet compression test is being performed on a four cylinder engine. The number two cylinder's compression is below specifications and remains the same after injecting oil. This result indicates: A. Worn piston rings. B. A faulty valve. C. A hole in the piston. D. Excessive carbon buildup on the piston's dome. ✔✔Answer A is wrong. If compression increases after injecting oil into the chamber, the piston rings are worn. This is because the oil fills the gap caused by the worn rings increasing the cylinder's compression. Answer B is correct. If there is no change in compression after adding oil, the cylinder has a faulty head gasket or valve. 7. A vehicle has blue colored exhaust. Technician A says this may be caused by weak piston rings. Technician B says this may be caused by a leaking fuel injector. Who is correct? A. Technician A B. Technician B C. Both A and B D. Neither A or B ✔✔Answer A is correct. Oil is bu [Show More]
