← TechnologyWhich risk increases when intake air is excessively compressed by a turbocharger?
A)Fuel injector nozzle fouling
B)Engine pre-ignition (detonation)✓
C)Catalytic converter overheating
D)Crankshaft bearing cavitation
💡 Explanation
Engine pre-ignition risk rises due to increased temperature from excessive compression via adiabatic heating. Because this results in uncontrolled combustion events rather than controlled burning events, pre-ignition occurs. Therefore, detonation is the answer, rather than other issues relating to exhaust or lubrication.
