    Explanation
    Preventive maintenance for corrosion involves a three-step process: cleaning, inspecting, and painting. Cleaning helps remove any dirt or debris that may contribute to corrosion, while inspecting allows for the identification of any existing or potential corrosion. Finally, painting helps protect the surface from corrosion by creating a barrier between the metal and the environment. This combination of cleaning, inspecting, and painting ensures that corrosion is prevented or addressed in a proactive manner.

    What type of bolt is typically used to connect accessories to an engine?

    • Stud

    • Fine thread bolt

    • Coarse thread bolt

    • General purpose bolt

    Correct Answer
    A. Stud
    Explanation
    A stud is typically used to connect accessories to an engine. Unlike bolts, studs do not have a head and are threaded on both ends. One end is screwed into the engine block, while the other end is used to secure the accessory by tightening a nut onto it. Studs provide a more secure and stable connection, as they can withstand higher levels of torque and prevent the accessory from loosening or vibrating during operation.
