← TechnologyWhich mechanical failure arises when excessive charge-cooling occurs in gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines?
A)Increased piston ring blow-by✓
B)Fuel injector nozzle coking
C)Reduced catalyst light-off time
D)Elevated exhaust valve temperatures
💡 Explanation
Increased piston ring blow-by occurs because charge cooling dilutes the oil film on the cylinder walls. This dilution reduces lubrication via oil control, therefore increasing piston ring leakage and pressure, rather than affecting the fuel injectors or exhaust directly.
