A technician observes black smoke exiting the exhaust tailpipe along with carbon-fouled spark plugs. Which fuel system malfunction is the most likely cause?
- AA restricted fuel filter limiting fuel delivery to the fuel rail
- BA ruptured vacuum hose allowing unmetered air into the intake manifold
- A leaking fuel injector delivering excessive gasoline into the cylinderCevap
- DAn exhaust valve failing to open during the engine intake stroke
Cevap
A leaking fuel injector delivering excessive gasoline into the cylinder is the most likely cause.
Black smoke emitted from the tailpipe and heavy carbon soot on spark plugs are definitive signs of an overly rich air-fuel mixture. A leaking or stuck-open fuel injector continuously drips or sprays excess fuel into the combustion chamber, exceeding the stoichiometric ratio and leaving unburned carbon.
