← TechnologyWhich risk increases for a diesel engine using pilot injection in cold temperatures?
A)Incomplete combustion of main injection✓
B)Excessive turbocharger boost pressure
C)Increased exhaust valve temperatures
D)Premature catalytic converter degradation
💡 Explanation
In cold diesel engines, pilot injection advances ignition; however, the cylinder may cool before the primary injection because increased heat transfer offsets preliminary burn. Therefore, the main fuel charge incompletely combusts, rather than achieving optimized early combustion.
