70% to passPrecombustion chambers differ from turbulence chambers in that precombustion chambers _______________.
Aallow fuel injection directly into the space above the piston
Bdo not contain the fuel injector nozzle tip
Ccontain the major portion of the total clearance volume
Dcontain a smaller portion of the total clearance volume
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) contain a smaller portion of the total clearance volume. Precombustion chambers differ from turbulence chambers in that precombustion chambers contain a smaller portion of the total clearance volume compared to the main combustion chamber. This allows for better fuel-air mixing and more efficient combustion, leading to improved engine performance and efficiency. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) fuel injection occurs directly into the main combustion chamber, not the precombustion chamber; B) the fuel injector nozzle tip is located in the precombustion chamber; and C) the precombustion chamber contains a smaller, not the major, portion of the total clearance volume.
