no

ANSWER:

Short answer - no... Typically cool diesel in liquid form is difficult to ignite but under the correct circumstances, heat from turbo's and exhaust will create vapor, an ignition source from any number of components and you will have fire. The environmental issues aside, diesel also deteriorates rubber components, hoses, wiring connector seal packs, etc. I've seen many vehicles with leaks of various amounts, especially farm equipment, however I've seen a few burned to the ground also...
