d . None

12.MTCS

a. For Crankcase Inspection both case halves must be assembled.

b. as in a+ main bearing halves must be installed.

c. as in b + case halves reassembled and torque.

d. None of the above

13. How are Crankshaft Journals dia measured?

a. Micrometer

b. Telescopic Gauge.

c. Both A&B

d. None of the above

14. Connecting Rods are checked for

a. Twist

b. Convergence

c. Both A&B

d None of the above

15. If a depression is detected on top of the piston

a. The piston was most likely subjected to detonation

b.The piston must be discarded due to an increased possibility of stress cracking around the
pin bosses and at the junction of the piston head and walls.
c. Both A& B

d. None of the above

16.MTCS

a. An Engine in service has a self purging of moisture

b.The lubricating oil circulated through the engine in service temporarily forms a protective
coating on the metal it contacts

c. both A&B

d. none
17.MTCS

a. Corrosion preventive compounds act as an insulator from moisture, in the presence of

excessive moisture they break down and corrosion begins

b. The compounds eventually dry because their oil base gradually evaporates.

c. Both A & B

d None

d None of the above

19. If there is a restriction in air intake passage

a. The engine runs rich at cruising power

b. The remedy would be to remove the restriction

c. Both A & B
