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.
Can you change from diesel fuel to regular fuel on a diesel truck?
No, you cannot put regular fuel into a diesel engine, because the two fuels burn at different temperatures. You can try cleaning your engine, they make products to remove buildup, and this will help your mileage.
How many liters of diesel does a 1.7 engine hold?
The engine holds no diesel. The diesel is stored in the fuel tank. Without knowing what make and model car you are talking about it is impossible to provide an answer.
Why need more air ratio in diesel engine?
make the fuel sufficient burning
What do glow plugs do in a diesel engine?
They preheat the air in the cylinder to make starting easier. they actually heat the diesel fuel to make starting easier
Does cold diesel make your car go better?
No, never put diesel in a gasoline engine it will foul up the sparkplugs in your engine, clog it up, and make it smoke alot. Cold Diesel in a diesel engine isn't too good either because when diesel gets cold it gels up, that is why most diesel engines have a built in heater to warm up the engine and fuel before starting. Hope this helps
How much fuel does a 400hp diesel engine burn?
Depends on the make and model, 8 - 23 mpg
What does plugging in a F250 do?
Most diesel engines have a block heater that heats the engine coolant so that the whole engine is warm to make it easier to start on cold mornings because a diesel uses compression heat to ignite the diesel fuel.
What is D2 fuel?
Diesel fuel... made from refinery Distillate #2, also know as GASOIL. Diesel used as fuels to cars is a variant of D2, but with additives to make the engine run better (in particular in the winter).
What year did Rudolf Diesel make a diesel engine?
1892
Can diesel fuel in turbo PETROL car make a fire?
It will not run with diesel.
What is the difference between a diesel engine and a petrol engine characteristic?
A diesel engine ignites it's fuel through compression and has no spark plugs. A gasoline engine has 1 or 2 spark plugs in each cylinder that fires at a set time and ignites the fuel. A diesel engine typically has much more torque than a gasoline engine and is designed to pull a heavy load. A gasoline engine will accelerate faster than a diesel but the diesel will have much more torque and be able to pull much heavier loads. A diesel engine will last much longer than a gasoline engine as it is built much heavier. Modern diesels are fairly quiet and make almost no more noise than a gas engine especially off idle.
