← ScienceWhich risk increases significantly when bypassing a diesel engine's intercooler?
A)Increased cylinder head thermal stress✓
B)Catalytic converter platinum degradation rate
C)Fuel injector solenoid overheating failure
D)Premature exhaust valve spring fatigue
💡 Explanation
Increased cylinder head thermal stress results because higher inlet air temperatures cause greater peak combustion temperatures; therefore cylinder heads undergo more rapid thermal cycling, rather than issues localized to the other components under cooler, design-centered conditions.
