Valve springs are used to open valves
True
False
On the compression stroke of a four-stroke engine, only the intake valve is closed.
True
False
On the power stroke of the four-stroke engine, both valves are closed.
True
False
When both the two-stroke and four-stroke engines, the spark ignites the air-fuel mixture when the piston is near the top of the center.
True
False
In a 4 stroke engine, oil is burned with gas in the combustion chamber.
True
False
The carburetor is a device for mixing the fuel and lubricating oil.
True
False
The piston is the moving end of the cylinder.
True
False
It takes four revolutions of the crankshaft to complete one cycle in a four-stroke engine.
True
False
In a four-stroke engine, the crankcase contains lubricating oil.
True
False
The valves are held closed by the springs.
True
False
A seal is made between the piston and the cylinder walls by piston rings.
True
False
Valves are opened by springs.
True
False
The flywheel connects the piston and crankshaft
True
False
The choke provides a rich fuel mixture by restricting the air supply to help start cold engines
True
False
A sheared or partially sheared flywheel key would cause
Ignition timing to be off
Valve timing to be off
PTO shaft slippage
An increase in voltage at the spark plug
The basic purpose of a carburetor is to
Clean air entering the engine
Regulate the mixture of air and fuel
Push the valves up
Equalize atmospheric pressure
Too little crankcase oil in the 4-cycle engine will cause
A seized engine
Foul spark plugs
Fast idling
Longer engine life
Two types of small engine governors are
Hand operated and limited fuel supply
Limited fuel supply and free-wheeling
Pneumatic and mechanical
Friction and frictionless
A ______ can be described as a device for automatically mixing fuel and air in the proper amounts.
Piston
Intake valve
Carburetor
Ventri
When a small engine stops after it has been running, the FIRST thing you check is
Spark plug setting
Crankcase valve clearance
Piston clearance
Level of fuel in the tank
Most engines have a type of _______ lubrication system.
Wick
Splash
Full flow
Positive displacement oil pump
The "mating" surface of the valve is the
Valve seat
Valve stem

Valve margin
The exhaust valve opens and the upward movement of the piston forces the burned gases out of the cylinder on the
Intake stroke
Compression stroke
Power stroke
Exhaust stroke
A compression test tells the
Condition of the ignition system
Condition of the bearings and seals
Condition of the rings and valves
Condition of the magnet
The purpose of the cylinder wall crosshatch pattern is to
Control lubrication of the cylinder and aid in the seating of new rings
Reduce combustion temperature
Make the piston and rings slide easier
Cool crankcase lubricant
A common compression ratio in a small gas engine could be:
15:1
1:1
12:1
6:1
Good compression depends on
The diameter of the valve stems
The thickness of the valve heads
Proper seating of the valves
Proper clearance between the valve stem and the valve guide
Weak compression may be the result of
Worn spark plug
Worn rings
Worn breaker points
Worn connecting rod

6:1
17.4:1
14.7:1
20:1
