Question: 1 / 400

During the inspection of an engine control system in which push pull control rods are used, the threaded rod ends should:

ensure that the safety wire passes through the hole in the shank of the rod end

be checked for thread engagement of at least two threads but not more than four threads

be checked for the amount of thread engagement by means of the inspection holes

The correct answer is C. During the inspection of an engine control system using push-pull control rods, it is important to check the amount of thread engagement by using the inspection holes. This is because the threaded rods ends must be securely connected to the control mechanism for efficient and safe operation. Therefore, options A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not directly address the necessity of checking the thread engagement through the inspection holes. Checking for the presence of safety wires or lubricating the threaded rod ends may be important for the maintenance of the system, but they do not ensure the proper functioning of the control rods. Option B, which suggests checking for a specific range of thread engagement, also does not provide the specific means of inspection necessary for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the control system.
