What outcome occurs when excessive cylinder head exhaust valve guide wear occurs?

A)Increased oil consumption via blow-by
B)Decreased compression ratio uniformity
C)Elevated catalytic converter temperatures
D)Increased fuel injector duty cycle

💡 Explanation

Increased valve guide wear allows oil to enter the combustion chamber; this is **blow-by**. The **gas scavenging** process pulls oil past worn valve guides because the vacuum created by the piston sucks oil past the looser guides; therefore increased oil consumption results rather than other temperature effects.
