Here's the rule: Gas goes faster, but diesel hauls heavier loads. There is much more energy in diesel fuel than in gasoline. Diesel engines can be hard to start in colder weather, and they leave plumes of black smoke in the air, sometimes.
A diesel engine fires from compression and not from a spark. A diesel engine is also built much stronger than a gasoline engine. Diesel engines normally have less horsepower than a gasoline engine but have much more torc, or pulling power.
Higher compression ratio, therefore it develops far more torque which equates to pulling power.

If there is adulteration in diesel, you will gt late throttle response. There will be ignition delay. A good diesel gives wafer crisp power delivery & quick throttle response. Good quality diesel gives excellent low end torque & strong pulling power from lower RPM. As per obsevation of Multijet engine of FIAT :- In multijet engine, good quality diesel burns with clattery sound on idle. In multijet engine ,at cold start ,Adulterated diesel gives diesel clatter but diesel clattter disappears when engine goes to operating temp. In multijet engine at full operating temperature diesel clatter disappears & engine revs like petrol engine without sound of diesel clatter.
The power of the engine of the peugeot 404 diesel 1965 is 67 hp
They each have their pros and cons. The Diesel will last longer, use less fuel, and has more pulling power or torque. The petrol is cheaper to build, fuel cost less, and is cheaper to repair.
total power produced engine is called indicated power.
Re-build your diesel. Put on a custom chip and that will make up for engine power loss.
Diesel is used as a fuel in all sorts of vehicles cars, trucks, trains, boats, anything with an internal combustion engine that is designed to burn diesel. Diesel engines are popular because they last a long time and have a lot of pulling power. They are ideal for anything carrying a heavy load.
In diesel engine fuel to power ratio is 1:50
A diesel locomotive is actually a hybrid engine. The diesel engine generates electricity, which is transferred from a motor to the wheels.
Any engine will lose RPM going up a hill, its called gravity and the engine has to overcome it. The heavier the vehicle the more RPM you lose. Thats also why transmissions have all the extra gears. Lower gear equals more pulling power and less speed, higher gear is less pulling power and more speed.
