diesel engines compress the fuel mixture much more than gasoline engines, diesel engines are always fuel injected while gasoline engines have the option of being carbureted, diesel engines usually cost more, diesels produce more power than a comparable gasoline engine, diesel engines have no distributor or spark system, and instead use glow plugs to ignite fuel, and diesel engines can be converted to run on vegetable oil with few modifications.

Will diesel engine work better with a spark plug?
Actually , there are no spark plugs in a diesel engine
Can petrol work in a diesel engine?
Yes, petrol will work in a diesel engine but will run rough for a short time before the engine needs extensive and expensive repairs.
How does a Bollinger engine work?
The engine is a 2 stroke 'semi' diesel. Inlet and exhaust are as per 'normal' two stroke diesel but the injected fuel is not ignited by compression alone as in a normal diesel. Instead a 'hot bulb' on the cylinder head is heated with a blow-lamp before starting and heat from this, transferred to a tube in the combustion chamber which ignites the fuel to start the engine. Once running the engine itself maintains the temperature. Often called a Hot Bulb Engine.
Can a diesel crankshaft and pistons work in a gas engine?
No.
Can you use octane booster in diesel engine?
no diesel has butane instead of octane so it will not work
Will gasoline work in a diesel engine?
No, Gasoline or Petrol as it is also known will not fuel a diesel engine, in fact it may suffer permenant damage if you try.
Why does diesel not work in petrol engine?

How long will diesel car run on petrol?
It won't, even a mixture of gasoline and diesel will not work. May I add that running petrol in a diesel will destroy that diesel engine.
How does a nitro engine work?
The operation of a nitro engine is similar to a normal gas/diesel engine, where a fuel mixture is ignited, and the energy drives cylinders back and forth in a cycle, all the while keeping an element hot so that the fuel stays ignited. The only difference is that a nitro mixture is more complicated, so a hole has to be bored into the engine so the mixture can keep flowing in a certain way.
How do diesel powered engines work?
Diesel engines work by using compression to cause an explosion which releases a surge of power. The engine compresses diesel fuel and oxygen in a cylinder until the fuel heats up and explodes.
How much money would it take to put a diesel engine in my 96 Bronco?
Depends on which engine and how much work you are willing to do.
