250+ TOP MCQs on Injection Pump Governor and Answers

IC Engines Multiple Choice Questions on “Injection Pump Governor”.

1. Fuel delivered by a pump increases with __________
a) pressure
b) speed
c) pressure & speed
d) none of the mentioned
Answer: b
Clarification: Rate of fuel injection is directly proportional to engine speed, so fuel delivered by a pump increases with speed.

2. Quantity of fuel delivered increases with load causing excessive ________________
a) carbon deposits
b) high exhaust temperature
c) carbon deposits & high exhaust temperature
d) none of the mentioned
Answer: c
Clarification: Quantity of fuel delivered increases with load causing excessive carbon deposits and high exhaust temperature.

3. When the engine speed tends to exceed the limit the _____________ fly apart.
a) weight
b) volume
c) weight & volume
d) none of the mentioned
Answer: a
Clarification: When the engine speed tends to exceed the limit the weight fly apart and not volume.

4. Lesser fuel causes the engine speed to ___________
a) remain constant
b) increase
c) decrease
d) none of the mentioned
Answer: c
Clarification: Fuel volume is directly proportional to speed, so lesser fuel causes the engine speed to decrease.

5. The purpose of a _____________ is to provide automatic control of the idling and maximum speeds to the engine.
a) governor
b) nozzle
c) throttle
d) none of the mentioned
Answer: a
Clarification: The purpose of a governor is to provide automatic control of the idling and maximum speeds to the engine and not of throttle or nozzle.

6. The driver’s foot accelerator controls the intermediate _____________ of the engine.
a) pressure
b) speed
c) pressure & speed
d) none of the mentioned
Answer: b
Clarification: Generally, the driver’s foot accelerator controls the intermediate speed of the engine.

7. In a _____________ governor, the camshaft of the pump is fitted to two ball weights.
a) mechanical
b) pneumatic
c) mechanical & pneumatic
d) none of the mentioned
Answer: a
Clarification: None.

8. The _____________ governor functions due to the vacuum created by suction in the air inlet pipe of the engine.
a) mechanical
b) pneumatic
c) mechanical & pneumatic
d) none of the mentioned
Answer: b
Clarification: The pneumatic governor functions due to the vacuum created by suction in the air inlet pipe of the engine while in a mechanical governor, the camshaft of the pump is fitted to two ball weights.

9. In the _____________ governor, the induction part throttle is operated by the foot pedal accelerator.
a) mechanical
b) pneumatic
c) mechanical & pneumatic
d) none of the mentioned
Answer: b
Clarification: In the pneumatic governor, the induction part throttle is operated by the foot pedal accelerator while in a mechanical governor, the camshaft of the pump is fitted to two ball weights.

10. If the engine is at rest and the lever controlling the engine speed is released, the spring will force the control to reach its ______________ position.
a) maximum
b) minimum
c) center
d) none of the mentioned
Answer: a
Clarification: None.

11. When the mechanical governor is running on ‘no load’ position ___________
a) the ball weights fly
b) the ball weight do not fly
c) the speed increases
d) none of the mentioned
Answer: b
Clarification: Generally, when the mechanical governor is running on ‘no load’ position, the ball weight do not fly.
