Which outcome occurs when a two-stroke engine experiences pre-ignition?

A)Increased cylinder head heat stress
B)Lower exhaust hydrocarbon emissions
C)Reduced piston lubrication demands
D)Greater peak engine torque output

💡 Explanation

Pre-ignition causes premature combustion, increasing cylinder temperatures; because unburnt fuel is already present, the combustion duration shortens, leading to a quicker heat flux through cylinder walls. Therefore, the cylinder head experiences increased heat stress rather than complete combustion under designed conditions.
