🔍 Key Concepts

• Primary vs. secondary functions of diesel piston rings • Different types of piston rings (compression vs. oil control) and what each one mainly does • How piston side thrust and cylinder liner wear are actually handled in an engine

💭 Think About

• First, ask yourself: What is the main (primary) job of piston rings in a diesel engine? Once you know that, which option sounds more like a secondary or additional job? • Think about which component mainly handles side thrust from the piston—do piston rings take this load, or does something else in the piston assembly do that? • Consider which ring type controls lubricating oil and how that might relate to preventing problems in the combustion space.

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear about the primary function of piston rings (what they must do every cycle) before deciding on a secondary one. • Check which option describes a job that is more realistically done by the piston skirt and bearings, not by the rings. • Verify which choice is most closely related to the function of oil control rings rather than compression sealing alone.
