D. CO2 (carbon dioxide)

The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system helps reduce air pollution by aiding in the scavenging and burning of harmful engine crankcase vapors and gases before they can enter the atmosphere. The PCV system consists essentially of an intake filter, PCV valve and interconnecting hoses.

I'm thinking C.

C - Water is one of the prime sources of problems in these systems. There are two typical causes of water contamination. The first cause is failure of the reed valve to seal due to breakage or loss of temper, allowing water from the exhaust to enter the A.I.V. case. Second, the reed valves can also stick closed, preventing air from getting to the catalyst.

D. Rough idle/stalling

Rough idling and problems with acceleration are the two most common indicators that the EGR valve is stuck open. The truck might also stall excessively. When the EGR valve is stuck open, all of the exhaust gas cycle back into the chamber, meaning there’s not enough oxygen for a combustion to take place.

If in the closed position: This means that the EGR valve is stuck shut and refuses to open. There will be increased nitrous oxide gas which will create engine knocking.

Spark knock

Spark knock is a symptom of an EGR valve that is always closed. The other choices are wrong because they are symptoms of an EGR valve that is always open.
