Description
1.
Difficulty in servicing a car; a very low car may be unserviceable because the hoist arms will not fit
under it.
1.
Parts that have been damaged or worn beyond their specified limit are classed as unserviceable.
This means that they must be replaced.
1.
Upselling to the customer; half-worn brake pads can be called unserviceable to increase
productivity.
1.
Unserviceable parts may be kept for used cars or someone wanting a cheap repair.
2.
Give two other names for the term ‘diagnosis’.
1.
‘Fault finding’ and ‘the repair order’ are also referred to as diagnosis.
1.
Diagnosis is sometimes also referred to as ‘troubleshooting’ or ‘fault finding’.
1.
‘Customer complaint’ and ‘fault finding’ can be used instead of diagnosis.
1.
‘Fitment of parts’ and ‘servicing’ are two other names for diagnosis.
3.
What do the numbers or lines embossed in the head of a bolt or fastener represent?
1.
The marking are there purely for identification purposes for use on production lines by vehicle
manufacturers.
1.
They represent the pitch thread and bolt diameter for both metric and SAE bolts; larger-diameter
bolts have a higher number and more lines on the bolt head.
1.
These markings identify the metric tapping size appropriate for that bolt. The higher the number on
the bolt head, the finer the pitch required for thread tapping.
1.
These markings represent bolts of different classes and their strength. For bolts with numbers, the
higher the number, the stronger the bolt. Some bolts with recessed heads have embossed lines: two
lines represent class 5 and three lines represent class 7.
4. Measurement of the amount of wear may determine the suitability of a part for further use.
True False
6. Components are often cleaned before disassembly in order to decrease chances of identity problems.
True False

What are feeler gauges and what are they used for?
1.
Feeler gauges are strips or blades of hardened steel that are ground or rolled to an accurate
thickness. They are usually supplied in sets with a number of blades. Each blade is marked with its
thickness in millimetres. They can be used singly, or two or more blades can be used together to
obtain the required thickness. Feeler gauges are used to measure small clearances, such as tappet
clearances. With the correct clearance, the feeler gauge should slide between the two parts with a
slight resistance.

Feeler gauges are strips or blades of hardened steel that are forged to an accurate thickness. They
are usually supplied in sets with a number of blades. Each blade is marked with its thickness in
millimetres. They can be used singly, or two or more blades can be used together to obtain the
required thickness. Feeler gauges are used to measure larger clearances, such as brake pedal free
travel and disc rotor runout.
1.
Feeler gauges are strips or blades of hardened steel that are ground or rolled to an accurate
thickness. They are usually supplied in sets with no number on the blades. Each blade has to be
measured using a micrometer to determine its thickness. They can only be used singly to obtain the
required thickness. Feeler gauges are used to measure small clearances, such as tappet
clearances.
1.
All Answers are correct.
2.
What are outside calipers, and what is the correct way to use them?
1.
All answers are correct.
1.
When the calipers have been adjusted to size, they are held against a steel rule to read the
measurement.
1.
Calipers can also be used to compare the sizes of two parts.
1.
Outside calipers are normally used to measure the diameter of a shaft.
1.
The calipers should be adjusted to slip over the shaft with a slight resistance. They should not be
forced because this would spring the legs and prevent an accurate reading.
3.
Are the three steps to reading a metric micrometer listed correctly below?
Step 1 – From the sleeve, read the number of whole-millimetre divisions that are visible on the main
scale above the datum line.
Step 2 – Add to this a half-millimetre division if one is visible on the main scale below the datum line.
Step 3 – From the thimble, note the division that coincides with the datum line and add this to the
previous readings.
True False
5. Inside and outside calipers are used in conjunction with a steel rule.
True False
9.
A scriber is a piece of round, hard steel about 3 mm in diameter with a long sharp point. It is used to
draw lines or marks on the surface of the work.
True False
10.
Surfaces such as the face of a cylinder head are checked along their length and also diagonally
using a straightedge.
True False
11.
If a surface is warped, a feeler gauge will slide under a straightedge without resistance. Different
thicknesses of feeler gauges can be used to determine the amount by which the component
is warped.
True False
12.
Plastigage is used in conjunction with a micrometer to achieve an accurate measurement.
True False
13.
Specifications for components are provided in service manuals.
True False
14.
A steel rule is the basic measuring instrument. When used on its edge, a steel rule can be used to
check the flatness of a surface.
True False
16.
Which statement is NOT correct?
1. using a protractor
26.
Checking a part against its specifications will determine whether it is?
1.
unserviceable and should be renewed
1.
suitable for further use
1.
all of these answers
1.
serviceable
27.
An inside micrometer can be used to measure:
1.
a brake disc rotor
1.
a warped cylinder head
1.
a valve guide
1.
a cylinder bore
28.
When using an inside micrometer to measure a cylinder bore, what are the two parts that come in
contact with the bore?
1.
Anvil and spindle.
1.
Anvil and thimble.
1.
Needle and thimble.
1.
