Answers
A service technician removed the Technician B only
inspection/fill plug from the differential of a
rear-wheel-drive vehicle and gear lube
started to flow out. Technician A says that
the technician should quickly replace the
plug to prevent any more loss of gear lube.
Technician B says to catch the fluid and
allow the fluid to continue to drain. Which
technician is correct?
Two technicians are discussing the function Both technician A's and B's assessments are accurate.
of pilot bearings. Technician A states that a
front-wheel-drive vehicle with a stepped
flywheel, compact clutch assembly, and a
transaxle with a short input shaft that may
not reach all the way to the flywheel does
not require a pilot bearing. Technician B
states that a rear-wheel-drive vehicle with a
flat flywheel has a much longer
transmission input shaft that rests in a small
bore in the flywheel, into which the pilot
bearing is pressed to support the engine.
