← TechnologyWhich risk increases when excessive pre-ignition occurs within a gasoline engine cylinder?
A)Piston crown cracking from thermal stress✓
B)Crankshaft bearing failure from oil dilution
C)Valve float from increased cylinder pressure
D)Fuel injector clogging from carbon deposits
💡 Explanation
When excessive pre-ignition happens, very high temperatures and pressures rise prematurely because combustion starts before the spark, leading to extreme thermal stress. Therefore piston crown cracking results, rather than bearing failure, valve float, or fuel injector issues, which stem from different causes.
