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.


Why compression ratio of petrol enine is 8 where as diesel engine is 22?

because a diesel engine ignites its fuel with pressure, and not with a spark like a petrol engine. that is why a petrol engine does not need as high a compression ratio as a diesel engine

You put petrol in a diesel engine by mistake what will happen?

If you put petrol in a diesel engine by mistake, the tank must be fully drained before driving as they are incompatible. If this is not done, the vehicle will not run and permanent damage can occur.
