14.) When a cylinder leakage test is performed, the piston should be at:
OA. TDC (Top Dead Center) on the compression stroke.
OB. TDC (Top Dead Center) on the exhaust stroke.
OC. BDC (Bottom Dead Center) on the exhaust stroke.
OD. BDC (Bottom Dead Center) on the intake stroke.

Respuesta :

When performing a cylinder leakage test, the piston should be positioned at TDC (Top Dead Center) on the compression stroke. This is because, at this position, both the intake and exhaust valves are closed, ensuring that the cylinder is sealed. This allows for an accurate assessment of the amount of leakage occurring within the cylinder. Therefore, the correct answer is:

OA. TDC (Top Dead Center) on the compression stroke.
