🔍 Key Concepts

• cylinder relief valves protect against excessive cylinder pressure • how fuel injection timing and quantity affect peak cylinder pressure • the difference between valve timing/clearance problems vs fuel system problems

💭 Think About

• Which adjustment would most directly cause abnormally high peak pressure in a single cylinder, while the rest of the engine runs normally? • Would an intake valve timing or clearance issue be more likely to lower compression/pressure or raise it enough to lift a relief valve? • What happens to cylinder pressure if an injector delivers too much fuel or at the wrong point in the cycle compared to the manufacturer’s spec?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice most clearly leads to higher-than-normal peak firing pressure in that cylinder • Eliminate any options that would mainly cause loss of power or low compression rather than over‑pressure • Think about which component, when incorrectly adjusted, affects the fuel quantity and spray pattern going into that single cylinder
