70% to passA dirty lube oil strainer can result in_______________.
Aexcessive oil consumption
Blow lube oil temperature
Ccrankcase dilution
Dlow bearing oil pressure
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) low bearing oil pressure. A dirty lube oil strainer can restrict the flow of oil to the engine's bearings, resulting in low bearing oil pressure. This reduced oil pressure can lead to inadequate lubrication of the bearings, which can cause excessive wear and even bearing failure. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) Excessive oil consumption is not directly caused by a dirty lube oil strainer. B) Low lube oil temperature is not a typical consequence of a dirty lube oil strainer. C) Crankcase dilution is not related to a dirty lube oil strainer.
