22. An unmetered air leak downstream
of the airflow sensor can cause:
a. A lean condition and poor engine
performance
b. The PCM to provide additional
fuel to compensate for the ex-
cess air during open-loop opera-
tion
c. The needle of a vacuum gauge
to fluctuate between 20 to 23 in-
Hg with the engine running at
idle
d. The electronic control system to
remain in the closed loop mode
23. Most turbocharger failures are
caused by:
a. Excessive high-speed operation
b. Exhaust temperatures too high
c. Dirt and contamination
d. Operation with leaded gasoline
24. A turbocharger that makes a light,
steady whistling sound that rises in
pitch as the engine accelerates is
an indication of:
a. A loose exhaust pipe or outlet
elbow
b. An intake air leak
c. Normal operation
d. Damaged bearings
25. Technician A says that if you discon-
nect the hose from the PCV valve
on a running engine, there should
be a hissing noise from the valve
and engine speed should drop
slightly.
Technician B says that with the en-
gine at idle and the PCV hose dis-
connected from the PCV valve, you
should feel a strong vacuum if plug
the valve with your finger and en-
gine speed will drop if system is
working properly.
Who is right?
a. A only
b. B only
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B
26. Technician A says that the idle air
control (IAC) valve may have to be
disconnected to perform a cylinder
balance test on an engine with a
DIS system.
Technician B says that the second-
ary wires are shorted to ground for
each cylinder to perform a cylinder
balance.
Who is right?
a. Technician A
b. Technician B
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B
27. A high idle speed and high step
count on a speed density control
system can be caused by all of the
following EXCEPT:
a. Stuck open IAC pintle
b. IAC valve stuck closed
c. A misadjusted throttle
d. Vacuum leaks
28. The exhaust gas recirculation
(EGR) system does all of the follow-
ing EXCEPT:
a. Reduce oxides of nitrogen emis-
sions
b. Slow down the combustion
process
c. Dilute the fuel mixture
d. Raise peak combustion temper-
atures
29. An air injection system used to con-
trol emissions may use all of the fol-
lowing components EXCEPT:
a. A wastegate
b. A gulp valve
c. An aspirator
d. A check valve
30. Technician A says that a malfunc-
tion in the canister purge system
can result in driveability problems
and a loss of fuel economy.
Technician B says that incorrect
canister purging can change the air-
fuel ratio and result in increased ex-
haust emissions.
Who is right?
a. A only
b. B only
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B
31. Technician A says that too much
valve lash clearance can increase
the effective camshaft duration and
cause a rough idle.
Technician B says that too much
valve lash clearance will prevent the
valves from seating properly and
cause poor performance that can
lead to burnt valves.
Who is right?
a. A only
b. B only
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B
32. Technician A says that high resist-
ance in an electronic control circuit
can cause problems because these
systems use low voltage compo-
nents.
Technician B says that low resist-
ance in an electronic actuator can
cause PCM failure because it al-
lows too much current to pass
through it.
Who is right?
a. A only
b. B only
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B
33. A feeler gauge is not required to ad-
just the valves on a running engine
that is equipped with:
a. Stud-mounted adjustable rocker
arms and hydraulic lifters
b. Selective length pushrods and
hydraulic lifters
c. Overhead camshafts with shim-
type adjusters
d. Overhead camshafts with screw-
type adjusters
34. Technician A says that a hard code
failure is easy to troubleshoot be-
cause the problem that set the code
still exists.
Technician B says that to find the
cause of an intermittent code fail-
ure, simply follow all the steps in the
diagnostic chart for that code.
Who is right?
a. A only
b. B only
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B
