Which consequence results when increased injection pressure induces cavitation in automotive fuel systems?

💡 Explanation

Cavitation erosion occurs due to rapid formation and collapse of vapor cavities formed, because increased injection pressure lowers the fluid's local boiling point by Bernoulli's Principle, initiating cavitation. This implosion erodes the metal, therefore option A, rather than smoother running or preventing filter clogging.
