Quizzizz Week 4 Flashcards

Front

Fluids commonly found in a vehicle: Transmission fluid, Brake fluid, Engine coolant, Adhesive sealant

Back

Adhesive sealant

Answer explanation

Adhesive sealant is not a fluid; it is a solid or semi-solid material used for bonding. In contrast, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and engine coolant are all essential fluids that facilitate vehicle operation.

Front

Parts of a brake system: Caliper, Rotor, Brake pads, Ignition coil. Which one is NOT a part?

Back

Ignition coil

Answer explanation

The ignition coil is not part of a brake system; it is used in the ignition system of an engine. The caliper, rotor, and brake pads are all essential components of a brake system.

Front

Routine maintenance items: Oil change, Tire rotation, Cabin air filter replacement, Cylinder head replacement

Back

Cylinder head replacement

Answer explanation

Cylinder head replacement is a major repair, not routine maintenance. In contrast, oil changes, tire rotations, and cabin air filter replacements are regular upkeep tasks that help maintain vehicle performance.

Front

Why is cylinder head replacement not considered a routine maintenance item?

Back

Because it is not performed regularly as part of scheduled maintenance.

Answer explanation

Cylinder head replacement is not a routine maintenance item because it is not performed regularly as part of scheduled maintenance, unlike tasks that are done frequently or included in standard checklists.

Front

What is NOT commonly measured with a dipstick? Options: Engine oil, Automatic transmission fluid, Some power steering fluid systems

Back

Brake fluid

Answer explanation

Brake fluid is not typically measured with a dipstick, unlike engine oil, automatic transmission fluid, and some power steering fluid systems, which all use dipsticks for level checks.

Front

Signs of low coolant level EXCEPT: Engine overheating, Low coolant warning light, Heater not blowing hot air, Uneven tire wear

Back

Uneven tire wear

Answer explanation

Uneven tire wear is not related to coolant levels. The other options—engine overheating, low coolant warning light, and heater not blowing hot air—are direct signs of low coolant levels.

Front

Functions of engine oil: Lubricating moving parts, Cleaning engine components, Helping to cool engine parts, Applying hydraulic pressure to brake calipers

Back

Applying hydraulic pressure to brake calipers

Answer explanation

Engine oil serves to lubricate, clean, and cool engine parts. However, it does not apply hydraulic pressure to brake calipers; that function is performed by brake fluid, making this the correct answer.

Front

Which of the following is not a function of engine oil? Lubrication, Cooling, Fuel combustion, Cleaning

Back

Fuel combustion

Answer explanation

Engine oil serves several functions, including lubrication, cooling, and cleaning. However, it does not participate in fuel combustion, which occurs in the engine's combustion chamber.

Front

Results of driving on underinflated tires EXCEPT: Poor fuel economy, Increased tire wear, Possible blowouts, Improved handling in corners

Back

Improved handling in corners

Answer explanation

Driving on underinflated tires leads to poor fuel economy, increased tire wear, and possible blowouts. However, it does not improve handling in corners; in fact, it can worsen handling and stability.

Front

What is not found in a vehicle charging system? Options: Alternator, Battery, Drive belt, Radiator

Back

Radiator

Answer explanation

The radiator is part of the vehicle's cooling system, not the charging system. The alternator, battery, and drive belt are all essential components of a vehicle's charging system.
