The engine must be running when testing the air-loss rate. True or False?

  1. True

  2. False

The correct answer is: False

The correct answer is False. The engine must be turned off when testing the air-loss rate. This ensures that there are no external factors, such as the engine running, that could affect the measurement and give inaccurate results. Additionally, the engine running could create air movement, making it difficult to accurately determine the air-loss rate. Therefore, option A is incorrect as it states that the engine must be running, which is false.
