A tyre is outside legal limits if it has: a cut more than 25mm or 10% of the section width which exposes the casing cords, a cut of more than 1.6mm in depth anywhere on the tyre tread or the tyre casing, any part of the tread less than 0.16mm in depth measured around the tyre circumference, any part of the tread less than 0.16mm in depth measured across the tread width.

• a cut more than 25mm or 10% of the section width which exposes the casing cords

• a cut of more than 1.6mm in depth anywhere on the tyre tread

• any part of the tread less than 0.16mm in depth measured around the tyre circumference

• a bulge in the sidewall of the tyre

Before checking the exhaust emissions of an engine you should:

• run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature

• check the oil level

• inspect the air filter

In a direct injection compression ignition engine the injector:

• injects the fuel into the cylinder

• injects air into the cylinder

• mixes fuel with oil before injection

• injects coolant into the cylinder

In a drum brake assembly the hydraulic wheel cylinder applies the leading brake shoe:

• in the same direction as the brake drum is rotating

• in the opposite direction to the brake drum is rotating

The sidewall marking of a tyre is 195/65R15. This means that the:

• height of the tyre is 65% of the width

• width of the tyre is 65% of the height

• diameter of the tyre is 15 inches

• tyre is suitable for vehicles weighing up to 195 kg

In an engine lubrication system the relief valve:

• limits the maximum oil pressure to the bearings

• increases the oil flow to the engine

• filters impurities from the oil

• regulates the temperature of the oil
