switch may be open. Who is right?

B. B only
C. Both A and B
D. Neither A nor B: C
Answer A is wrong. Even though the throttle valve (TV) may be out of adjustment,
Technician Bis also correct.

,2. All of the following statements about bushing inspection and measurement
are true EXCEPT:
A. a scored shaft in the bushing contact area may indicate a lack of lubrica-
tion.
B. the shaft to bushing clearance may be measured with a wire type feeler
gauge.
C. the shaft to bushing clearance may be measured with a vernier caliper and
a micrometer.
D. normal bushing clearance is 0.015 to 0.025 inch (0.381 to 0.635 mm).: D
Answer A is wrong. Scoring occurs when there is a lack of lubrication.
Answer B is wrong. Wire-type feeler gauges can be used to check shaft-to-
bushing clearance.
Answer C is wrong. Shaft-to-bushing clearance can also be checked with a vernier
caliper and a micrometer.
3. A customer with an automatic transaxle in a vehicle has a complaint of
harsh 3-4
,upshifts. All the other shifts are normal. Technician A says the fourth
accumulator piston may be stuck. Technician B says the pressure regulator
valve is sticking.
