🔍 Key Concepts

• Diesel engine crankcase and what normally flows through it • How cooling water is routed around cylinders and liners • Which components (fuel system, intercooler, scavenge air) are physically separated from the crankcase oil

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which fault would let water mix directly with the lubricating oil in the crankcase? • Consider the physical location of each listed component relative to the crankcase—does it touch the crankcase or is it separated by metal and seals? • Think about which choice would most likely allow jacket water or cylinder cooling water to leak down into the crankcase.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option involves a part that is in close contact with the cylinder and its cooling water space. • Eliminate options where the problem would show up first in the fuel system or air intake/exhaust, not in the crankcase oil. • Verify which component, if it fails, can provide a direct path for water from the cooling system into the crankcase.
