A compression test shows that one cylinder is too low. A leak test
on that cylinder shows excessive leakage. During the test, air could
be heard coming from the tail pipe. Which of the following could
be the cause?
A. Broken piston rings C. Leaking intake valve B. Leaking head
gasket D. Exhaust valve not seating
Answer: The correct answer is D, exhaust valve not seating.
If an exhaust valve is not seated, a leak test will force air past
the valve and out the tail pipe. A leaking intake valve will allow
air into the intake manifold and out the throttle body. Head gasket
or ring leaks will allow air into the cooling system or crankcase.
