🔍 Key Concepts

• Fuel system contamination and how solid particles move with the oil • Effects of abrasive particles on moving metal parts • How flow passages and small openings react to dirt or sludge

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens when dirty oil passes through tight clearances in pumps and injectors—what parts could be scraped or ground down? • Consider the path of the fuel: tank → pumps → heaters → injectors/sprayer plates. Where along that path can particles either block flow or cause erosion? • Ask yourself whether sediment can cause only one type of damage, or if its effects might show up in several places in the system.

✅ Before You Answer

• For each option, picture how sediment physically interacts with that component (rubbing vs. blocking vs. passing through). • Check whether each listed part has small clearances or small holes that sediment could damage or plug. • Before choosing, ask: could sediment reasonably affect more than one of these components at the same time?
