Because of there size and the fact that the large two strokes are vary tall
Diesel engines are more efficient than gasoline engines.
Diesel engines run on diesel fuel. Gasoline will destroy a diesel engine.
No, a diesel engine will not burn LPG. It would destroy a diesel engine. A gasoline engine can, with some modifications, burn LPG.
Gasoline engines cannot run on diesel. Only a diesel engine can run diesel. And a diesel engine cannot run on gasoline.
Petrol & Gas engines are spark ignited engines where as diesel engines are compression ignited engines. Petrol engines works with explosion of fuel air mixture due to spark from spark plug inside the cylinder. Diesel engines works with combustion of fuel air mixture due to compression, compressed mixture attains a very high temperature which exceeds the flash point of diesel and starts burning inside the cylinder and the hot gases after burning of fuel misture exerts force on piston which makes the diesel engines work. Diesel engines are highly efficient than petrol engines.
Diesel engines were named after Rudolf Diesel (1858 - 1913) who was a German mechanical engineer. He invented the diesel engine to replace slower steam engines. Anshika Bangalore
Yes there are plenty of V6 diesel engines.
diesel engines doesn't use spark plug but uses heater plug.petrol engines produces more torque than petrol engines but petrol engines produces more acceleration than diesel engines.petrol engine is faster to be heated than diesel engine.
No, diesel engines cost more to build than petrol engines. They are built much heavier.
Of an individual diesel engine and an individual steam engine of the same energy output the diesel engine would be less polluting. It is far more efficient. However, there are far more diesel engines than steam engines in the world today so overall diesel engines pollute more than steam engines.
