How can you identify a car that it is a petrol or diesel by just seeing the car?

Check the fuel inlet area - if the car is supposed to run on diesel, it may state "Diesel Fuel Only". If it doesn't, chances are that it takes normal everyday fuel.

What to do when you put gas in a diesel motor?
Siphon it all out. Petrol (Gas) and diesel mix incredibly well so it is impossible to siphon off just the petrol, you need to remove the whole lot and then full it up with diesel.Depending on how old the car/truck is, it will respond differently to having petrol go through it. Newer direct injection/common rail/turbo diesels will not like having petrol run through them at all, and might mean replacing both the high and low pressure pumps(Diesel acts as a lubricant for these and when petrol is run through them it washes all the lube away) and the turbo etc. Older diesels might get away with running a bit of petrol through them, but again it is recommended removing all the petrol and just putting diesel in.Even putting a small amount of petrol in a diesel tank will dilute the lubricating power of diesel and may damage parts.In short, when you put petrol in a diesel, grab yourself some hose and siphon it all out!
What will happen if you use petrol why can't you use petrol?
If you have a diesel engine and fill it with petrol, it can explode. The petrol is gasoline with added chemicals to make it explode by the ignition made by the spark plug, causing the cylinders to move, that then powers your car. The diesel engine works differently, in that it has a heat plug that ensures heat in the chamber, the reverse movement of the cylinder cause an increase in pressure until it reaches the point where combustion takes place. Diesel on a petrol engine may wreck all the electronics, valves - because it will not ignite. The reason for preferring diesel engines on a boat is just that the diesel vapor needs pressure and heat to explode, not just a tiny spark.
