← TechnologyWhich risk increases when a diesel engine's electronic wastegate malfunctions?
A)Compressor surge within the turbocharger✓
B)Premature injector nozzle fouling occurs
C)Catalytic converter overheating accelerates
D)Cylinder head gasket failure likelihood
💡 Explanation
Compressor surge risk rises because improper wastegate control disrupts airflow, creating backflow events. `Turbo surge` ensues therefore because the wastegate cannot bleed off excess exhaust pressure rather than allowing pressure equalization via correct valve operation.
