The irritants in diesel fuel as it burns in older trucks in newer trucks it shouldn't bother your eyes the fumes are all blocked by DPF filters and such

Four stroke diesel engine work principle?
how diesel engine works. on which principle diesel engine works. who search the diesel engine. capacity of diesel engine. how we calculate the efficiency of diesel engine. firing order of diesel engine. any videos
Can you make a diesel engine which works on the basic principle of petrol engine or you can say it uses diesel as a fuel but works on the principle of petrol engine?
No, a diesel is a compression firing engine and a petrol is a spark firing engine. Diesel fuel will not burn in a petrol engine with spark plugs.
Why cant you use petrol and diesel together?
A Petrol engine use petrol that it ignites to cause an explosion in the cylinders, where the diesel engine works by compressing the mix of diesel and air, expose this to heat to make it explode but over a longer time. So a diesel engine has no spark plugs. The diesel needs pressure and heat, while petrol is explosive, will explode. So the two cannot be used together.
How is maintenance different for a gasoline and diesel cars?
The main reason is that the way Diesel and Gasoline engines works is complete different, the gasoline needs a spark to explode and generate movement. The diesel explodes with pressure, the pressure of the fuel on the cylinder is what makes the explosion, so in a diesel engine you don't need an electric system to generate a spark. The compression in a diesel engine is a lot higher that a gasoline engine. All diesel engines have diesel injectors, gasoline engine works with injectors and carburators. Because of all this differences and more the maintanence is different, oil change periods, air filters, fuel system, electric system, belts, valves.........
How does a 1990 Ford 7.3L diesel engine work?
A 1990 Ford 7.3L diesel engine works by using a very high compression ratio to ignite a mixture of air a diesel. Unlike gasoline engines, it requires no spark to actually ignite the fuel.
Why do drivers of diesel pickups leave engines running while refueling when it says on the pump turn off engine while fueling?
The better question is, why are gasoline engines shut off when refueling. The reason you shut off a gasoline engine while refueling is because the vapour that is released from gasoline is highly combustible (hence, how the engine works) and even a small spark (like that from a spark plug) can cause an explosion. Diesel fuel does not "ignite" like gasoline, but rather an explosion is caused by the fuel being compressed to a point that it explodes. This means that it is safe to run a diesel engine while the fuel tank is open. As with all engines, the majority of wear and tear on a diesel engine happens upon starting the engine, so avoiding that step can actually conserve fuel and preserve engine life. Diesel engines can be difficult to restart, especially in extremely cold weather, and the diesel fuel will not perform properly if the engine and/or fuel cool down. In extremely cold climates, truck drivers leave their trucks at a low idle all night to prevent freezing.
How does diesel engine work?
The diesel fuel, along with fresh air, is put under a great deal of pressure over the piston under the cylinder head. This causes the mixture of fuiel and air to explode and push the piston down. Other then that the operation between a diesel and petrol engine are about the same.Another answerA diesel engine works like a regular gas or petrol engine that uses injectors, except that a diesel engine uses only very high compression to cause the diesel fuel/air mixture to heat up so much that it explodes. Some diesels also have glow plugs which help the diesel fuel/air mixture ignite while the engine is cold.A gasoline engine does not use such very high compression to ignite the fuel/air mixture. It uses a spark plug.A diesel engine is very similar to a gasoline engine except for one main reason. A 4-stroke gasoline engine first intakes a mixture of air and fuel into the cylinder, compressed by a piston, and then this compressed mixture is ignited by a spark plug which creates a small electrical arch. A diesel engine first intakes just air into the cylinder and is compressed, afterwards the fuel is injected into the compressed air, the heat from the compression of the air ignites the mixture without the use of a spark plug.
What is similar to a gasoline engine except it has no spark plugs?
A diesel engine has the same internal components and works off of compression ignition, not spark ignition.
Why does a Diesel engine not use a spark plug?
A diesel engine works by compressing its fuel (which raises its temperature). When it has been compressed to a certain point its temperature is raised sufficiently for it to ignite by itself, without the need of an external spark.
What are the defferences between dessel and petrol engine?
Petrol & Gas engines are spark ignited engines where as diesel engines are compression ignited engines. Petrol engines works with explosion of fuel air mixture due to spark from spark plug inside the cylinder. Diesel engines works with combustion of fuel air mixture due to compression, compressed mixture attains a very high temperature which exceeds the flash point of diesel and starts burning inside the cylinder and the hot gases after burning of fuel misture exerts force on piston which makes the diesel engines work. Diesel engines are highly efficient than petrol engines.
