1

The steering __________ transfers the motion of the steering gear output shaft to the steering arms that turn the wheels.

57% Answer Correctly

linkage

column

cylinder

arms


Solution

The steering linkage is a system of pivots and connecting parts between the steering gear and the control arms. The steering linkage transfers the motion of the steering gear output shaft to the steering arms that turn the wheels.


2

Cylinder air and fuel intake valves, exhaust valves, and mounts for spark plugs and fuel injectors are contained in the:

45% Answer Correctly

cylinder head

piston ring

manifold

head gasket


Solution

Cylinders act as a guide for the pistons that translate the heat energy of combustion into the mechanical energy necessary to move a vehicle. Piston rings seal the piston to the cylinder to contain combustion gases and also regulate the oil distribution between the piston and cylinder wall. A cylinder head closes in the top of the cylinder forming the combustion chamber which is sealed by a head gasket (head). The head provides space for air and fuel intake valves, exhaust valves, and mounts for spark plugs and fuel injectors.


3

The fuel injectors are fed fuel by the:

65% Answer Correctly

fuel return line

fuel pressure regulator

powertrain control module

electric fuel pump


Solution

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.


4

The combustion chamber is enclosed by the:

53% Answer Correctly

piston ring

cylinder head

head gasket

piston


Solution

Cylinders act as a guide for the pistons that translate the heat energy of combustion into the mechanical energy necessary to move a vehicle. Piston rings seal the piston to the cylinder to contain combustion gases and also regulate the oil distribution between the piston and cylinder wall. A cylinder head closes in the top of the cylinder forming the combustion chamber which is sealed by a head gasket (head). The head provides space for air and fuel intake valves, exhaust valves, and mounts for spark plugs and fuel injectors.


5

What links each piston to the engine's crankshaft?

72% Answer Correctly

connecting rod

piston ring

halfshaft

cylinder arm


Solution

A connecting rod employs a wrist pin to link each piston to the engine's crankshaft.
