4.

Technician A says legal emissions standards aim to reduce and eliminate the production of noxious substances from all internal combustion engines, except diesel-powered vehicles. Technician B says today's diesel engines also must comply with standards to reduce emissions. Who is correct?

a)

Tech A

b)

Tech B

c)

Both Techs

d)

Neither Tech

5.

Technician A says hydrocarbon emissions are formed as a result of fuel that have been burned completely. Technician B says fuels are classified ashydrocarbons because they are made of mostly hydrogen and carbon atoms. Who is correct?

a)

Tech A

b)

Tech B

c)

Both Techs

d)

Neither Tech

6.

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) enter our atmosphere through evaporative emissions from hydrocarbon-based fuels. The chemical reaction creates__________.

a)

Ozone

b)

Nitrogen

c)

Carbon

d)

Particulate

7.

Which of the following statements about carbon monoxide is correct?

a)

Carbon monoxide is created as a result of incomplete combustion of carbon-based fuels.

b)

Higher compression pressures and excess air used in diesel combustion limit carbon monoxide formation in diesels.

c)

Both A and B

d)

Neither A nor B

8.

Which of the following statements about sulfates is correct?

a)

When diesel fuel is refined from petroleum oil that is pumped from the ground, varying quantities of sulfur naturally combine with oil.

b)

Burning sulfur contained in fuel produces sulfate (SO

c)

Both A and B

d)

Neither A nor B

9.

Technician A says blow-by is the leakage of air past the piston rings into the crankcase. Technician B says that in any engine, blow-by occurs mostlyduring the compression stroke. Who is correct?

a)

Tech A

b)

Tech B

c)

Both Techs

d)

Neither Tech

10.

Low combustion temperatures and pressure, lack of oxygen, or insufficient burn time typically contribute to which emission?

a)

Carbon monoxide

b)

Carbon dioxide

c)

Oxides of nitrogen

d)

None of these is correct.

11.

Which of the following statements about carbon dioxide production is NOT correct?

a)

Carbon dioxide is best known as a greenhouse gas.

b)

Typically, CO emissions from diesels are 20–25% lower than an equivalently powered gasoline-fueled engine.

c)

Internationally, legislation requires vehicle manufacturers to limit CO emissions from their vehicles.

d)

Carbon dioxide is a normal by-product of combustion of carbon-based fuels.

12.

Technician A says a common strategy to reduce particulate formation is to make fuel droplets smaller by using finer atomization. Technician B says this is done by using higher pressurization of fuel through an injector with smaller, more numerous spray holes. Who is correct?
