← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when exceeding piston's compression ratio rating?
A)Detonation causes piston ring failure✓
B)Increased oil viscosity lowers performance
C)Lean mixture creates excess emissions
D)Injector wear induces catalytic converter damage
💡 Explanation
Exceeeding the piston compression ratio leads to pre-ignition because during compression, the air-fuel mixture reaches its auto-ignition temperature prematurely resulting in detonation; therefore, ring failure occurs, rather than lubricity issues or emissions problems.
