Actually, Diesel is not flammable, it is combustible. The difference is the flash point. Diesel does not flash until 143 degrees Fahrenheit. Anything between 100 and 200 is combustible; less than 100 is flammable. Compare it to "gasoline" which has a flash point of -42 F (I think).
The fuel that goes in to an internal combustible engine are gasoline or diesel fuel.
Not flammable at room temperature, but combustible.

Yes. Methane gas is highly flammable, which is why we burn it as fuel.
what is a flashpoint <><><> The temperature at which a substance gives off an ignitable vapor is the flash point. If the flash point is under 100 degrees F, it is a flammable (gasoline). If it is over 100, it is a combustible (diesel fuel). Flash point is NOT the ignition temperature.
Both flammable and combustible mean apt to burn.
no, its a combustible
Diesel fuel is the kind of fuel used by diesel engines. Its a combustible fuel refined from crude oil - just as is gasoline - but diesel has a much higher flash point than gasoline. Its grade is measured in cetane rather than octane
Flammable catches on fire. Combustible explodes. Boooyah!
no its combustible!
