🔍 Key Concepts

• diesel engine combustion and what proper vs improper combustion looks like • how exhaust gas temperature changes when an engine is overloaded • what different exhaust smoke colors (white, blue, black, sparks) typically indicate

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens inside a diesel engine when it is asked to produce more power than it is designed for: what changes first—temperature, color of smoke, or something else? • Which of these choices is most directly linked to the engine taking too much fuel for the load it can efficiently burn? • Consider maintenance issues: which signs are more related to fuel quality or lubrication problems versus an actual overload condition?

✅ Before You Answer

• Match each exhaust indication (white smoke, blue smoke, sparks, high pyrometer readings) with its usual cause: fuel issue, lube oil burning, soot/carbon in exhaust, or excessive load/combustion temperature. • Recall what a pyrometer measures and why engineers watch these readings closely when increasing engine load. • Eliminate any options that are more associated with cold starting, water in fuel, or oil burning rather than high load.
