Final Review Part 2 Pm

Which of the following could result in a hard starting condition?

• corroded battery cables

• excessive CCA capacity

• heavy-gauge battery cables

The usual minimum cranking voltage specification is ______ volts.

• 9.6

• 10.5

• 0

While the engine is cranked, a voltmeter placed between positive battery post and the positive post of the starter reads less than .01 volt. The cause of this reading could be ______.

• excessive resistance in the ground circuit

• normal resistance in the positive battery cable

• excessive resistance in the positive battery cable

If a ground circuit test reveals a voltage drop of more than 0.2 volt, the problem may be a ______.

• loose starter motor mounting bolt

• poor battery ground terminal post connector

• damaged battery ground cable

• All the answers are correct.

The device that prevents the engine from turning the armature of the starter motor is the ______.

• overrunning clutch

• pinion gear

• Flywheel

The starter safety switch on a vehicle with an automatic transmission is typically located on the transmission housing.

• true

• false

The starter motor converts electric current into torque or twisting force through the interaction of magnetic fields.

• true

• false

The gear ratio between the starter pinion gear and flywheel teeth provides an increase in torque and a reduction in speed (rpm).

• True

• False

Some starters use planetary gear sets for gear reduction.

• true

• false

The starter circuit requires strong voltage, but actual current flow is low.

• ture

• false
