The calorific value of fuel is the quantity of heat produced by its combustion at a constant pressure and under normal conditions. For diesel, the calorific value is 44,800.
18.6 ATM for diesel UDER ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE.
the fuel pump in common rail diesel generates the highest pressure eg 1600Bar. whereas normal fuel pump generates not more than 10-15 psipressure
Either manually pump fuel into the fuel filter (as in, do this several hundred times), or pour some diesel fuel directly into the fuel filter.
yes
injector tubes are leaking
low sulphur diesel will have no effect whatever. new lubricants have been added to fuel to compensate for the reduction of the sulphur
I would just go with DIESEL and not GASOLINE
electric fuel lift pump inside fuel tank and high pressure diesel pump on engine driven by timing belt
Because a diesel requires a fuel sprayed under high pressure. Compression on most diesels is over 300 PSI. Injector pressure when the fuel is sprayed can be from 1500-2500 PSI. This is why you need to be careful around diesel lines. The pressure can cut your skin or inject fuel into your body. That can cause problems. A carb can't deliver any pressure.
If you're running a GM gas engine, about 40 psi. If you're running the 6.5 Detroit Diesel, 10 - 12 psi.
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.
