General Knowledge
Diesel engines use this type of ignition.
What is compression ignition?
This part converts linear piston motion into rotational motion.
What is the crankshaft?
This component stores diesel fuel.
What is a Fuel Tank?
This system recirculates exhaust gases to reduce NOx emissions.
What is the EGR system?
The proper bottom clothing you wear working in a shop?
What is Pants?
Who Invented Diesel Engines?
Who is Rudolph Diesel?
These components open and close to allow air and fuel mixture in and exhaust gases out.
What are valves?
This device pressurizes fuel before it’s injected.
What is the fuel pump?
The DPF stands for this.
What is the Diesel Particulate Filter?
What is Work-Toe Boots?
Diesel fuel is ignited by what?
What is heat from compression?
This part houses the pistons and crankshaft.
What is the engine block?
The fine-mist spray into the combustion chamber comes from this.
What is the injector nozzle?
This component converts harmful gases into less harmful emissions.
What is the catalytic converter?
Should you wear gloves working around rotating parts?
The color of diesel exhaust that indicates unburned fuel.
What is black smoke?
The part that connects the piston to the crankshaft.
What is the connecting rod?
This filter removes water from diesel fuel.
What is the fuel-water separator?
The SCR system uses this fluid to reduce NOx emissions.
What is DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid)?
Should you wear safety glasses working around Diesel Engines?
Yes, You should wear safety glasses.
The compression ratio of a diesel engine is usually (higher/lower) than a gasoline engine.
What is higher?
This cover seals the top of the cylinder head and prevents oil leaks.
What is the valve cover?
The system that maintains consistent high pressure in modern diesels.
What is the common-rail system?
The process of burning off soot in the DPF.
What is regeneration?
What PPE do you always wear working around Diesel Engines?
