The pressure builds up too quickly, which means some of the downward force on the piston starts before it has started moving down. That reduces the power.
You have to pumps, the first being a lift pump, and the second an injection pump. if you have an early 6.2l diesel, the lift pump is a mechanical one bolted onto the side of the engine, the injection pump is in the valley pan next to and in front of the air cleaner. If you have a later model 6.2l diesel the lift pump is a electric type located under the drivers side door, located on the frame. The injection pump is located in the valley pan as above.
No, at least not any piston engines. Diesels and gasoline/petrol engines use very different compression ratios, and you really wouldn't be able to use the same engine for those different kinds of fuels. Yes, there were some early farm tractors (1940's-1950's) that started on gasoline and them switched to diesel when the engine was warmed up. They had carburetors, distributors and spark plugs along with diesel fuel injectors.
Bleeder valve: Valve, usually operated by a wrench, to release the air from a hydraulic system EG: Hydraulic brakes or Diesel engine injection systems or Early gasoline fuel injection systems or Cooling systems or many other applications that you need to remove air from fluid systems.
No With some exceptions in the 1950's and before. Some early diesels started on gasoline with spark plugs and then switched to diesel when the engine was warmeed up.
That will depend on the engine. Some will be as early as 3000 miles and others as high as 10,000 miles.
The late 80's to early 90's tuned port engines had multiport injection, along with the lt1, and the later ls1.
1994 to early 1998
I always ran my Volkswagen diesel in the winter one gallon of petrol to a tank of fuel. At this time diesel was not being made with anti freeze additive so lorries and early cars on diesel would fuel freeze in severe weather. I had two cars and both ran for 100,000 giving me no engine problems so a small amount will not bother a tank full of diesel or the engine
The 6.9 engine in the Ford trucks was an International/Navistar diesel, and was never built with a turbo. The 7.3 Was introduced with a turbo in the early 90's.
Karl Benz of Germany is considered to be the inventor of a liquid-fueled vehicle. Rudolph Diesel also of Germany, was the inventor of the diesel engine. Some early auto engines were powered by steam.
Diesel engines are still 4-stroke (unless and early Detroit engine which were 2-stroke) only real difference between gas and diesel is fuel delivery and ignition.diesel uses high compression,fuel atomization and heat to fire cylinder,where gas engines need a ignition source.hope info was helpfull.
1994 through early 1998
