ALeaking cylinder head gaskets
BLeaking aftercooler
CExcessively high scavenge air temperature
DAuxiliary blower failure
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Leaking aftercooler. The presence of water in the scavenging air receiver indicates a leaking aftercooler. The aftercooler is responsible for cooling the scavenging air after it has been compressed by the blower, and a leak in the aftercooler can allow water to enter the scavenging air system. The other answer choices are not directly related to the presence of water in the scavenging air receiver. Leaking cylinder head gaskets, excessively high scavenge air temperature, and auxiliary blower failure can all cause other issues, but they are not the primary causes of water in the scavenging air receiver.
