68 degree Celsius
As low as 126 degrees Fahrenheit, diesel fuel could potentially catch on fire. This is known as the temperature of ignition.
It will not run with diesel.
1200 degrees
flash point of petrol is > -45 degree celsius flash point of diesel is 52-95 degree celsius
Probably not but why is it in there and how much?
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
Diesel engines do not require "ignition" to burn diesel fuel--it is powered by the "heat of compression" therefore diesel fuel has a much higher "flash point" than gasoline. If you were to put gasoline in a diesel engine you would probably blow the heads off the engine. Due to lower "flash point" (temperature when fuel ignites). If you were to put diesel fuel in a gasoline powered engine, it would not ignite and engine will not start. Due to higher "flash point).
No, diesel fuel is not easy to set on fire. It has to have a good wick, or be vaporized to be quickly set on fire. You can put out a match in a pool of diesel fuel, but you wouldn't want to drop a match into a tank that holds it, as enough may have evaporated to cause it to ignite. It is not as volitile as gasoline.
Diesel fuel is used in diesel engines as a partial lubricant. It also has a high flash point due the fact that diesel engines ignite the fuel by compression rather than spark. A gasoline engine on the other hand fires the fuel by spark and the fuel has a lower flash point. Gasoline has no lubricating qualities whatsoever. Diesel engines are designed to run on diesel fuel and the use of gasoline in a diesel engine will destroy it. Gasoline engines on the other hand will not even run on diesel but no damage will be done to the engine. You will however have to drain the fuel tank and flush out the fuel lines.
Yes you can mix oil and diesel for burning brush and stuff just don't put it in any engines!
Yes it can if the fuel gets hot enough to ignite as in leaking on a header.
petrol has a lower flash point and is more volatile than diesel.
