Which codes govern the inspection and installation of internal combustion engines?

The correct answer is based on the fact that codes governing the inspection and installation of internal combustion engines can vary by country and region. The ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) codes are widely recognized and used internationally for mechanical engineering practices. In this context, while ASME codes are applicable globally, local regulations such as the Philippine Mechanical Engineering Codes specifically address the requirements, standards, and practices which are essential for ensuring safety and efficiency within the Philippines.

These local codes must be adhered to as they often encompass specific provisions that are relevant to the operational contexts, practices, and safety requirements unique to the region. Therefore, the combination of ASME codes with local Philippine standards offers a comprehensive regulatory framework tailored to internal combustion engines in that environment, ensuring that both international standards and local practices are respected.

The other options consist of various combinations of codes that may not directly correspond to the specific needs and governance required for internal combustion engines as defined in the Philippine context, leading to their exclusion as the most relevant choice.
