The fuel is shut off to shut the engine off.
Gasoline engine - spark is cut off when ignition is turned off Diesel engine- fuel is cut off when engine is shut down
The fuel is cut off to the engine. With no fuel it stops running immediately.
If you put gasoline in your diesel engine, first be sure to keep the engine turned off. If you have already started the engine, turn it off. Then, drain the fuel tank, remove and replace the fuel filter, and fill the tank with diesel. This should fix the problem.
I have a 2006 Chevrolet C4500 Duramax Diesel and I would like to know how to turn off or reset the check engine light on the truck.
ensure there is diesel in the car. Turn on ignition but don't start the engine yet. Watch dashboard and look for a small light (not ignition light) look for a heater plug light. When this goes off then turn ignition full turn and engine should start.
Do you have an old diesel or a new one? If you have an old diesel engine, you turn the key to the "run" position and look for the glow plug light. Glow plugs heat the cylinders, and when the engine is warm the light goes out, you turn the key and the engine starts. On a new diesel, you turn the key and it starts.
How do you turn off the electronic engine management systems light indicator on the dash
Not really. You could start over and redesign an engine to be able to run on diesel but it would be completely different from the original.
Diesel engine fire off of compression.....they do not have firing mechanisms like spark plugs on gas engines.... It takes more power to turn the diesel engine over to start firing off compression so you need two batteries
with scan tool but you must fix the problem to keep it from comming on .
If its a Diesel, its probably the Diesel Stop switch. Located on the Diesel Fuel Pump.
Turn the fuel down.
