Question 132Motor Plants - 1st Asst/Chief

The correct answer is D) Multi-hole. The illustration MO-0059 depicts a multi-hole diesel engine fuel nozzle, which is the typical design used in diesel engines. Multi-hole nozzles are characterized by having multiple small holes or orifices through which the fuel is sprayed into the engine cylinder, allowing for better atomization and more efficient combustion compared to other nozzle types. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) Open nozzles are used in older diesel engines and have a single, larger hole; B) Pintle nozzles have a needle-like pintle that controls the fuel flow; and C) Self-cleaning nozzles have a mechanism to prevent clogging, which is not the primary feature shown in the illustration.
