Technician A says that the fuel pump relay is usually controlled by the PCM. Technician B says that a TBI injector squirts fuel above the throttle plate. Which technician is correct?

Technician A & B both are correct.

Explanation:

A PCM stands for powertrain control module which is used in electronic fuel-injection system to control the working of fuel injectors. So, Technician A is correct. A TBI stands for throttle-body-injection which is used to inject the fuel into the air above the throttle plate of engine. That's why Technician B is also correct.

Fuel tank consists of electronic fuel pump. Computer control fuel pump relay and fuel-pressure regulator. Fuel pump speed is controlled by PCM. Technician B says that a TBI injector squirts fuel above the throttle into air at atmospheric pressure.

the earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (fig. 7.14). recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. it is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. the upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. the term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the great rift lakes in eastern africa and the rising of the himalayan mountain range. the motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (fig. 7.15)

spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (fig. 7.15)

transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (fig. 7.15)
