← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when excessive end-play happens with internal combustion engine pistons?
A)Increased oil consumption occurs downstream✓
B)Higher fuel efficiency results henceforth
C)Reduced thermal management occurs
D)Detonation risk significantly decreases
💡 Explanation
Excessive end-play allows the piston to rock, increasing oil pumping via the mechanism of hydrodynamic lubrication. This leads to increased oil consumption because oil enters via the combustion chamber rather than reducing it, thereby managing thermal risks less.
