← TechnologyWhich risk increases when piston cooling lubricant flow restriction occurs in a diesel engine?
A)Increased piston thermal stress✓
B)Reduced exhaust turbine efficiency
C)Fuel injector nozzle fouling
D)Increased cylinder head corrosion
💡 Explanation
Increased risk is higher piston thermal stress, because insufficient oil prevents adequate heat removal via the oil squirter mechanism. Therefore, piston material yields rather than maintaining strength, resulting in possible engine failure under high temperatures.
