Which outcome occurs when localized 'hot spots' raise piston temperature?

💡 Explanation

Premature detonation results from localized heating because autoignition temperature is reached before spark ignition initiates; this is knocking. Elevated temperature causes pre-ignition, therefore detonation, rather than controlled combustion under normal timing regimes.
