Exhaust gases from cylinder exhaust valves are collected by the:
tail pipe |
|
exhaust manifolds |
|
catalytic converter |
|
muffler |
The cast iron exhaust manifolds collect engine exhaust gas from multiple cylinder exhaust valves and deliver it to the exhaust pipe. Exhaust manifolds can be generic or specially tuned (header pipes) to the engine. Header pipes deliver higher performance but are more expensive and less durable.
Which of the following regulates the flow of coolant through the radiator?
thermostat |
|
water jacket |
|
water pump |
|
crankshaft |
The thermostat controls coolant (and, through it, engine) temperature by regulating the flow of coolant through the radiator. A bypass tube allows coolant to bypass the radiator and flow back into the water pump when its temperature is low enough that the thermostat is closed.
The fuel pressure regulator ensures that the fuel injectors receive fuel at a consistent and known rate. The fuel pressure regulator is part of the:
fuel rail |
|
fuel filter |
|
electric fuel pump |
|
fuel manifold |
The electric fuel pump feeds pressurized fuel through a fuel filter to the fuel injectors via the fuel rail manifold. The fuel rail contains the fuel pressure regulator which ensures that the fuel injectors receive fuel at a consistent and known rate. Excess fuel bled off by the pressure regulator returns to the fuel tank through the fuel return line.
The intake ports on the cylinder heads is fed outside air via the:
intake pressure regulator |
|
intake control module |
|
intake manifold |
|
intake air pump |
The intake manifold distributes outside air to the intake ports on the cylinder heads. The intake air filter removes any airborne contaminants before the air enters the engine.
A __________ is a drive axle that extends from a transaxle or differential to one of the drive wheels.
drive shaft |
|
half shaft |
|
steering linkage |
|
control arm |
A half shaft is a drive axle that extends from a transaxle or differential to one of the drive wheels. There are two half shafts per drive axle, one for each wheel, each doing "half" the job.
