32A diesel engine has no throttle plate so it always takes in maximum amount of air and the fuel injected is varied according to load, rpm. It ranges from 50:1 or leaner at idle to stoichiometric ratio (dont think its the same as petrols) at full load.

It can vary from near 100:1 at no load to under 15:1 at full load.

Why does not diesel not start after ran out of diesel?

A diesel engine uses a high pressure fuel system,which means that it can't have air in it,it's kinda like the hydraulic brake system,if their is air in it,it won't work right. when you run a diesel out of fuel,it sucks in a bunch of air,which must be bled out of the system,in order for it to re-prime its self. if you don't get the air out,then,the diesel fuel will only travel up so far into the fuel line,until it is stopped by air,that's why a diesel is so hard to start after you run them outta fuel.
