Can you jump-start a flat battery on a petrol car from a diesel car?
You can jump start a gasoline powered car by using a diesel powered auto. The only thing that must be remembered, is that the batteries must be the same voltage(12 volt). And make sure that the jumpeer cables are connected to the right posts. Red to red & black to black. brewski
Can you jump start two diesel cars?
To jump start a diesel vehicle with a flat battery? you can, just make sure the voltages on both vehicles batteries are the same. I believe if the alternator is not performing as it should the diesel engine may not operate as electric fuel injection will not operate.

Jump start car and ensure alternator and battery are good.

You can use jumper cables, but cars with automatics shouldn't be towed or pushed as an attempt to start them. It can damage the transmission.
Can a Land Rover Discovery 2 run on diesel gasoline?
I would say no ...never heard of an engine that will run on both unless you change your compression ratio which they did on old tractors to start on gas and switched over to run on diesel They did this by closing a second intake valve thus increasing the compression ration from 6:1 to 16:1 ..so started on gas but ran on diesel Diesel and gasoline are two different fuels and no engine designed to use one will run on the other. your an idiot, DMV needs to take your license, you have no business owning a vehicle, people like you make me want to jump in front of a speeding train.
Can you jump start a diesel truck with a gas truck?
Yes, as long as they're of matching voltage. You can't jump off a truck with a 24v electrical system from one with a 12v system.
Can you jump start a flat battery on a diesel car from a petrol car?
The diesel battery is bigger as it take a lot more to get a diesel engine going. Best bet is to charge the diesel battery using the petrol, connect the 2 and leave the petrol engine running.
Why does it take such a long time to jump start a diesel?
Diesel engines have such a high engine compression ratio, they require a more powerful starter, which in turn requires more battery power. That is why diesels have two batteries.

Can you jump-start a flat battery on a diesel car from a petrol car?
Not recommended. The diesel engine has no sparkplugs and therefore relies on friction (heat) and compression, and as a result requires lots more torque power to start than its gasoline powered counterpart whose battery does not have enough amperage to turn over a diesel engine, much less start it running. As long as the specification of the Battery is up to or matches the specification of the engine electrics it doesnt matter if the battery is from a petrol, diesel, tractor or boat. Electricity is a discovery in science and independendant of the fuel your car\ engine uses once it is turning over. All you need to know is the amperage is within a reasonable variance and the voltage is correct. I started my Peugeot 407 diesel this morning from my wifes petrol Freelander. The Peugeot started in hald a tick. Always suggest that you have the engine running on the car you are jumping the charge from.
