1. 1. A compression test shows one cylinder much lower than the rest. A small amount of engine oil is squirted into that cylinder and the test is repeated. The reading comes up close to the others. What does this indicate?

   • A. A burned exhaust valve
   • B. A cracked cylinder head
   • C. Worn piston rings or a worn cylinder wall
   • D. A head gasket leaking between two cylinders
   Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

   Odpowiedź: C. Worn piston rings or a worn cylinder wall

   The oil temporarily seals the gap between the rings and the bore, so if the reading jumps, the compression was escaping past the rings. If the reading does not change, the leak is somewhere oil cannot seal, which points at a valve, the head gasket or a crack. Adding the oil is what turns a dry compression test into a wet one, and it is the fastest way to split ring problems from valve problems.

2. 2. During a cylinder leakage test, with the cylinder at top dead center on the compression stroke, air is heard hissing from the tailpipe. Which fault does this point to?

   • A. Worn piston rings
   • B. A leaking intake valve
   • C. A leaking head gasket
   • D. A leaking exhaust valve
   Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

   Odpowiedź: D. A leaking exhaust valve

   A leakage test tells you where the air goes, and each escape route names a part. Out of the tailpipe means the exhaust valve is not sealing. Out of the throttle body or intake means the intake valve. Out of the oil fill or dipstick tube means the rings, because the air reached the crankcase. Bubbles in the radiator or a rising coolant level means the head gasket or a crack. What counts as acceptable leakage varies, so compare against the manufacturer's spec rather than a number you remember.

3. 3. Complete the sentence.

   A cylinder bore is measured with a dial bore gauge just below the ring ridge and again at the bottom of ring travel. The difference between those two readings is the cylinder's _____.

   Opcje do luki 1: clearance, out of round, taper, runout

   Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

   Odpowiedź: taper

   Taper is the change in bore diameter from top to bottom. It forms because the top of the ring travel sees the highest pressure, the most heat and the least lubrication, so the bore wears fastest there. Out of round is a different measurement: two diameters taken at the same depth, ninety degrees apart. Both are checked against spec before you decide whether a block can be honed or has to be bored oversize.

4. 4. Which findings would support a diagnosis of a failed head gasket?

   Zaznacz wszystkie pasujące odpowiedzi.

   • A. A steady drop in oil pressure that only happens at cold start
   • B. White exhaust smoke with a sweet smell that does not clear once the engine is warm
   • C. A whine from the accessory drive belt that rises with engine speed
   • D. Bubbles rising steadily in the radiator with the cap off and the engine running
   • E. Coolant loss with no external leak anywhere on the engine

   Odpowiedź: B. White exhaust smoke with a sweet smell that does not clear once the engine is warm, D. Bubbles rising steadily in the radiator with the cap off and the engine running, E. Coolant loss with no external leak anywhere on the engine

   A failed head gasket lets things cross between passages that should stay separate. Coolant reaching a combustion chamber burns and leaves white steam that smells sweet and keeps coming after warm up, unlike ordinary condensation, which clears. Combustion gas pushed the other way shows as bubbles in the radiator or as pressure in the cooling system. Coolant that disappears with nothing on the ground is the classic internal leak. Belt noise and a cold start oil pressure dip are unrelated systems.

5. 5. An engine puffs blue smoke for a few seconds right after a cold start and again after a long idle at a stoplight, then runs clean. What is the most likely cause?

   • A. Worn valve stem seals or worn valve guides
   • B. Worn main bearings
   • C. A thermostat stuck open
   • D. A restricted air filter
   Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

   Odpowiedź: A. Worn valve stem seals or worn valve guides

   Blue smoke is burning oil, and the timing tells you how it got into the chamber. While the engine sits or idles, oil seeps down the valve stems past worn seals or loose guides and pools in the port, then burns off in a puff when the engine is started or the throttle opens. Worn rings smoke differently: the smoke is more or less constant and gets worse under load, not just at start up.

6. 6. A technician lays a strip of Plastigage across a rod journal, installs and torques the cap, then removes the cap and compares the crushed width to the scale on the package. What is being measured?

   • A. Crankshaft endplay
   • B. Bearing oil clearance
   • C. Connecting rod side clearance
   • D. Cylinder bore taper
   Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

   Odpowiedź: B. Bearing oil clearance

   The strip crushes to the width of the gap between the bearing and the journal, so the scale reads oil clearance directly. Do not turn the crankshaft while the strip is in place, because that smears it and ruins the reading. Endplay is measured with a dial indicator while the crank is pried fore and aft, and rod side clearance with a feeler gauge between the rod and the crank cheek. If the crushed strip is noticeably wider at one end, suspect a tapered journal and confirm it with a micrometer.

7. 7. Complete the sentence.

   The radiator cap holds the cooling system under pressure, which raises the coolant's _____. That is why a cap which no longer holds its rated pressure can let an engine boil over even when the temperature gauge looks normal.

   Opcje do luki 1: boiling point, freezing point, specific gravity, flow rate

   Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

   Odpowiedź: boiling point

   Pressure raises the temperature at which a liquid boils, so a sealed system can run hotter without forming steam pockets. The cap also has a second, smaller valve that lets coolant flow back from the recovery tank as the engine cools, and a cap that fails that way collapses hoses instead. Test the cap with a pressure tester and compare it to the rating stamped on it.

8. 8. A vehicle takes far too long to warm up, the temperature gauge stays below normal, and the heater blows cool air on the highway. What is the most likely cause?

   • A. A failed water pump impeller
   • B. A thermostat stuck closed
   • C. A collapsed lower radiator hose
   • D. A thermostat stuck open
   Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

   Odpowiedź: D. A thermostat stuck open

   The thermostat blocks flow to the radiator until the engine reaches operating temperature. Stuck open, coolant circulates through the radiator all the time, so the engine never gets fully warm and there is little heat left for the heater core. Stuck closed does the opposite and overheats the engine quickly. On most vehicles the engine computer notices a coolant temperature that never reaches the expected range and sets a code, which is a useful confirmation.

9. 9. A compression test finds one cylinder low while all the others read normal. Which of these could produce that result?

   Zaznacz wszystkie pasujące odpowiedzi.

   • A. A burned or badly seated exhaust valve
   • B. A hole or a crack in that piston
   • C. A clogged fuel injector on that cylinder
   • D. A weak ignition coil on that cylinder
   • E. Valve clearance set too tight, holding a valve slightly open
   Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

   Odpowiedź: A. A burned or badly seated exhaust valve, B. A hole or a crack in that piston, E. Valve clearance set too tight, holding a valve slightly open

   A compression test is purely mechanical. It asks one question: can this cylinder seal and hold pressure. Anything that leaves a path for the pressure to escape shows up, including a valve that will not seat, a damaged piston and valve lash so tight that the valve never fully closes. Fuel and spark faults cause a misfire with perfectly normal compression, which is exactly why the test is useful for separating the two. Note that a valve held off its seat also cannot dump its heat into the seat, which is how tight lash eventually burns a valve.

10. 10. How is a cylinder head checked for warpage?

    • A. With a precision straightedge and a feeler gauge, checked lengthwise, across the width and along both diagonals
    • B. With a dial bore gauge run along the length of the head
    • C. With an outside micrometer at each corner of the head
    • D. By torquing the head bolts in sequence and watching for movement
    Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

    Odpowiedź: A. With a precision straightedge and a feeler gauge, checked lengthwise, across the width and along both diagonals

    The straightedge lies on the deck surface and the feeler gauge finds any gap under it. Checking several directions matters because heads rarely warp evenly. An aluminum head that has overheated usually humps in the middle, and that bow only shows up on the lengthwise and diagonal checks. Compare the largest gap you find against the manufacturer's limit to decide between resurfacing and replacement, and check the block deck the same way while the head is off.

11. 11. An engine has a deep knock that is loudest under load and gets noticeably quieter when the ignition or the injector for one cylinder is disabled. What does that point to?

    • A. A sticking hydraulic lifter
    • B. A loose accessory drive pulley
    • C. An exhaust manifold leak
    • D. A worn connecting rod bearing on that cylinder
    Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

    Odpowiedź: D. A worn connecting rod bearing on that cylinder

    Cutting the cylinder removes the combustion pressure that drives the rod down onto a worn bearing, so the knock softens or disappears. That change is the whole point of the test, because it names the cylinder as well as the fault. Lifter noise is a lighter tap from the top of the engine that does not respond to cutting a cylinder, and an exhaust leak is a tick that is loudest cold and quiets as the metal expands.

12. 12. Complete the sentence.

    Crankshaft endplay is measured with a _____ while the crankshaft is pried back and forth, and piston ring end gap is measured with a _____ after the ring is squared in the bore.

    Opcje do luki 1: dial indicator, torque wrench, vacuum gauge, dial bore gauge

    Opcje do luki 2: micrometer, feeler gauge, depth gauge, straightedge

    Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

    Odpowiedź: dial indicator, feeler gauge

    Endplay is the crankshaft's fore and aft movement, controlled by the thrust bearing, and a dial indicator on the end of the crank reads it while you push the crank each way. Ring end gap is the space between the two ends of a ring sitting in the bore, and a feeler gauge slides into that space. Square the ring first by pushing it down with an inverted piston, because a cocked ring gives a false reading. Too little gap and the ring ends butt together as they heat up.

13. 13. An engine with a rubber timing belt is in for belt replacement at the recommended interval. Which practices are correct?

    Zaznacz wszystkie pasujące odpowiedzi.

    • A. Pry the belt onto the sprockets with a screwdriver so it seats fully
    • B. Line up the camshaft and crankshaft timing marks before the old belt comes off, then confirm them with the new belt installed
    • C. Inspect or replace the tensioner and the idler pulleys while the belt is off
    • D. Turn the engine over by hand through two full crankshaft revolutions and recheck the marks before starting it
    • E. Reuse the old belt if it has no visible cracks
    Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

    Odpowiedź: B. Line up the camshaft and crankshaft timing marks before the old belt comes off, then confirm them with the new belt installed, C. Inspect or replace the tensioner and the idler pulleys while the belt is off, D. Turn the engine over by hand through two full crankshaft revolutions and recheck the marks before starting it

    On an interference engine a belt that is one tooth off, or a belt that fails, lets a piston hit an open valve, so the marks get verified twice and the engine is turned by hand first. Two crankshaft revolutions equal one camshaft revolution, which is why two turns brings every mark back around. The tensioner and idlers wear on the same clock as the belt and are the usual reason a fresh belt fails early, and many of these engines drive the water pump off the same belt, so it is replaced at the same time. Prying with a screwdriver damages the belt cords, and a belt with no visible cracks can still be at the end of its service life.

14. 14. The oil pressure warning light comes on at idle on a high mileage engine. What should the technician do first?

    • A. Replace the oil pump
    • B. Switch to a much heavier oil viscosity to raise the reading
    • C. Check the oil level and condition, then connect a mechanical gauge to verify the actual pressure
    • D. Replace the main and rod bearings
    Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

    Odpowiedź: C. Check the oil level and condition, then connect a mechanical gauge to verify the actual pressure

    The warning light is driven by a sender, and a failed sender or its wiring can light the lamp with pressure that is perfectly fine. Verify with a mechanical gauge at the engine speed and temperature the manufacturer specifies before you condemn a part. Low oil level, oil thinned by fuel, a clogged pickup screen, a worn pump and worn bearings all look identical from the dash, and they need different repairs. Switching to a heavier oil raises the number without fixing anything.

15. 15. A vacuum gauge is connected to the intake manifold of an idling engine. The needle drops sharply at regular, repeating intervals and returns each time. What does that pattern suggest?

    • A. A restricted exhaust system
    • B. A leaking or burned valve
    • C. A rich fuel mixture
    • D. A worn oil pump
    Pokaż odpowiedź i wyjaśnienie

    Odpowiedź: B. A leaking or burned valve

    A regular repeating drop means the same cylinder fails the same way on every cycle, which is what a valve that will not seal looks like. Random, irregular drops point instead at a sticking valve or an intermittent misfire. A reading that is low but steady points at late valve timing or a stretched timing chain, and a reading that starts normal then slowly falls as engine speed is held up is the classic sign of a restricted exhaust. The oil pump has no effect on manifold vacuum.

Co obejmuje ASE A1, naprawa silnika

A1 to egzamin z naprawy silnika w serii A amerykańskich egzaminów certyfikacyjnych dla mechaników samochodowych, którą prowadzi National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence. Jego plan treści dzieli się na cztery obszary: ogólna diagnostyka silnika, diagnostyka i naprawa głowicy oraz rozrządu, diagnostyka i naprawa bloku silnika oraz diagnostyka i naprawa układów smarowania i chłodzenia. Ogólna diagnostyka silnika ma najwięcej pytań z całej czwórki, co mówi ci, gdzie egzamin kładzie ciężar.

To rozłożenie ciężaru jest tu najbardziej użyteczne. A1 nie sprawdza głównie tego, czy umiesz na papierze wyremontować silnik. Sprawdza, czy potrafisz wziąć skargę, wybrać właściwy test i poprawnie odczytać wynik. Pomiar kompresji i szczelności cylindrów, pomiar ciśnienia oleju, próba ciśnieniowa układu chłodzenia, diagnostyka hałasu oraz pomiary liniałem, mikrometrem czy czujnikiem zegarowym wracają raz za razem, bo każde z nich jest krokiem diagnostyki, a nie faktem do wyrecytowania.

Sama certyfikacja wymaga dwóch rzeczy. Zdajesz egzamin i dokumentujesz dwa lata odpowiedniego doświadczenia w praktycznej pracy, choć odpowiednie szkolenie może zastąpić jego część. Certyfikacja też nie trwa wiecznie. Wygasa i trzeba ją odnawiać kolejnym egzaminem. Terminy rejestracji, koszt egzaminu i sposób punktacji ustala ASE i zmieniają się z czasem, więc sprawdź aktualne informacje na stronie ASE, zamiast wierzyć liczbie ze strony do nauki, także nie z tej.

Jak korzystać z tej próbki

Te 15 pytań trzyma się naprawy silnika i opiera się bardziej na rozumowaniu niż na nazewnictwie. Pytają, co udowadnia próba kompresji na mokro, czego nie pokazuje próba na sucho, gdzie ucieka powietrze podczas próby szczelności i co oznacza każda droga ucieczki, co tak naprawdę mierzą stożkowatość i owalizacja oraz dlaczego mechanik sprawdza ciśnienie oleju manometrem mechanicznym, zanim dotknie pompy. Tego rodzaju myślenie A1 nagradza.

Zrób próbkę za jednym razem, bez notatek, a potem przeczytaj wyjaśnienie do każdego pytania, także tych, które masz dobrze. Traktuj złą odpowiedź jak temat, a nie jak fakt. Jeśli poległeś na pytaniu o próbę szczelności i na pytaniu o uszczelkę pod głowicą, powtórz szczelność cylindra jako jeden temat, bo te dwa pytania to ta sama myśl zadana z dwóch stron.

Połącz to z czasem przy prawdziwym silniku. Czytanie o ustawianiu pierścienia w cylindrze to nie to samo co zrobienie tego, a pytania pomiarowe w A1 zakładają, że trzymałeś te narzędzia w ręku. Siostrzane quizy linkowane niżej obejmują szerszą serię A i egzamin A5 z hamulców, więc zrób wszystkie trzy, jeśli idziesz po więcej niż jedną certyfikację.

Jak StudyPDF buduje pełne testy próbne z twoich własnych materiałów

Piętnaście pytań pokaże ci, gdzie masz słabe punkty. Same nie przygotują cię do egzaminu, a ogólna baza pytań rzadko odpowiada temu, na co kładzie nacisk podręcznik albo program szkolenia, z którego naprawdę korzystasz.
