accumulation of water in one cylinder, in addition to the crankcase of
an idle diesel engine?/Cracked cylinder liner. 
The direct cause of a
crankcase explosion can be attributed to ______________./an overheated bearing 
The possibility of a
diesel engine crankcase explosion will be increased by operating an engine
____________./with a leaking crankcase inspection cover gasket 
Which of the following
problems could develop due to the accumulation of oil vapors in the crankcase
of a diesel  engine?/Crankcase explosion 
When oil vapor, oxygen
and hot spots are present at the same time within a crankcase, which of the
following hazards could develop?/Explosion 
Which of the listed
conditions is most likely to cause a crankcase explosion?/Fuel dilution of the
lube oil 
Crankcase explosions in
propulsion diesel engines result from _____________./the ignition of unburned
fuel and air in the crankcase 
The blower type crankcase
ventilation system ____________./removes combustible gases from the crankcase

for ventilation of an enclosed  diesel
engine crankcase by means of a small ________./breather or by means of a slight
suction not exceeding 1" of water 
Under normal conditions,
the main source of crankcase oil contamination is attributed to
______________./breakdown of the lubricating oil 
Which of the following
conditions is most likely to occur when unburned fuel contaminates the
crankcase of a diesel engine?/Lube oil is diluted and its viscosity is reduced. 
When fuel enters the
crankcase of a diesel engine, it 
_____________./dilutes the lube oil and reduces its viscosity 
If a crankcase explosion
occurs in a diesel engine, which of the listed actions should be taken?/Allow
the engine to cool before opening the crankcase. 
If a crankcase explosion
occurs in a diesel engine, you  should
stop the engine and _____________./allow the engine to cool naturally 
If a crankcase explosion
has occurred in a diesel engine, and the crankcase remains intact, which of the
following precautions should be observed?/The crankcase should remain unopened
until the engine has cooled. 
If water is found in the
crankcase of a diesel engine, the cause may be due to _____________./all of the
above 
How does water enter the
crankcase of a diesel engine?/As water vapor contained in blow-by. 
Water accumulating in the
crankcase of a diesel engine could indicate _____________./a cracked cylinder
liner 
Diesel engine
"blow-by" into the crankcase is caused by excessive ring
____________./gap clearance 
In a diesel engine,
blow-by is a result of combustion gases leaking into the crankcase past the
_____________./compression rings 
An increase in crankcase
pressure generally indicates 
_____________./worn engine cylinder liners
