← TechnologyWhich outcome results when a gasoline direct injection engine experiences excessive carbon buildup on piston crowns?
A)Increased engine knocking and pre-ignition✓
B)Reduced oil viscosity and lubrication
C)Elevated exhaust gas temperature and NOx
D)Decreased fuel efficiency and cycle completion
💡 Explanation
When excessive carbon builds up on piston crowns, the deposits act as insulators and heat local "hot spots", increasing the likelihood of auto-ignition before the timed spark because it raises combustion temperature. Therefore, increased engine knocking results, rather than reduced oil, high temperature, or reduced efficiency, each reliant on distinct failures.
