← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when an injector in a gasoline direct injection engine experiences localized overheating?
A)Increased engine compression ratio
B)Reduced fuel injector nozzle clogging
C)Vapor lock formation within the injector✓
D)Improved fuel atomization at the nozzle
💡 Explanation
When an injector overheats locally, vapor lock occurs because the fuel near the injector tip vaporizes prematurely, forming vapor bubbles that block flow. Vapor lock therefore impedes fuel delivery, preventing proper combustion, rather than de-clogging, or improving atomization, which require different operating conditions.
