← TechnologyWhich risk notably increases when dynamically balancing mass-produced automotive crankshafts at high speed?
A)Material fatigue from excessive stress✓
B)Spark plug fouling from oil aeration
C)Crankcase pressure exceeding design limits
D)Valve float from increased engine speed
💡 Explanation
When balancing crankshafts flaws risk fatigue, where cyclic stress concentrates at imperfections, leading to crack initiation and propagation that may cause the crankshaft to disintegrate. Therefore material fatigue increases, rather than plug fouling, crankcase pressure issues or valve float which relate less to balancing imperfections at high speed.
