Diesel is a fuel with approximately 15-19 carbon atoms in a molecule.Whereas petrol has only 5-9.When air is mixed with diesel inside the combustion chamber it forms more molecules of carbon dioxide and monoxide.This results in producing more more pollutants.These pollutants come out in form of smoke.This is more in diesel than petrol engine.
What else can I help you with?
What causes diesel to emit white-grey smoke from exhaust when starting and revving engine?
Injectors, timing, low cylinder pressure.
Why turbo diesel engine emit black smoke?
I was told by my friend who has a power stroke that it's unburnt fuel. Since they run off of fuel pressure.
Do cars emit CO2 into the atmosphere?
Yes, cars emit carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere as a byproduct of burning gasoline or diesel fuel.
Do cars emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere?
Yes, cars emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere as a byproduct of burning gasoline or diesel fuel.
What causes a diesel car to emit alot of black smoke and engine misfire and run poorly?
one of the causes of all three symptoms is a bad fuel injector
How can you determine if a truck is diesel-powered"?
To determine if a truck is diesel-powered, you can check the fuel cap or fuel door for a label that says "diesel fuel only." Additionally, diesel trucks often have a louder engine noise and may emit black smoke from the exhaust. You can also look for a diesel engine badge or sticker under the hood or on the vehicle's body.
What problems did the diesel engine have?
1. Diesel engines, because they have much higher compression ratios (20:1 for a typical diesel vs. 8:1 for a typical gasoline engine), must have thicker metal castings so tend to be heavier than an equivalent gasoline engine.2. Diesel engines also tend to be more expensive to buy. However, because diesels can do more miles per gallon, they are well worth the extra money because, but, if you do a big annual mileage, they will save you money buying diesel fuel instead of gasoline.3. Diesel engines, because of their weight and compression ratio, tend to have lower maximum RPM ranges than gasoline engines. This makes diesel engines high torque rather than high horsepower, and that tends to make diesel cars slower in terms of acceleration. The latest designs of diesel engine have performances which are almost as good as as gasoline engines.4. Diesel engines must be fuel injected, and in the past fuel injection was expensive and less reliable. Nowadays many gasoline engines also use fuel injection systems and the designs of both the injector fuel pumps - and the injectors themselves - have been improved to make them very reliable.5. Diesel engines tend to produce more smoke and "smell funny." Nowadays, provided they are serviced correctly, diesel engines don't emit more smoke.6. Diesel engines are harder to start in cold weather, and if they contain glow plugs, diesel engines can require you to wait before starting the engine so the glow plugs can heat up. Modern diesel engines don't have that problem.7. Diesel engines used to be much noisier and tended to vibrate. Modern diesel engines can be almost as quiet as gasoline engines and they don't vibrate so much.8. In some places diesel fuel is less readily available than gasoline.
Why does a Honda CL90 emit black smoke?
One reason could be a worn engine.
What damage is done by accidentally filling a petrol motorcycle with diesel?
It is possible that no damage will occur by accidentally filing a petrol motorcycle with diesel. The motorcycle make emit a lot of smoke as a result of doing this.
What to do to prevent pollution produces by smoke belching vehicle?
Service or replace the engine. A vehicle does not emit much smoke if it is in good condition and running properly.
What would cause a Toyota Lucida to emit white smoke?
normally when the engine emits bluish white smoke, the engine oil mixes up with the gasoline in the combustion chamber-as a result of loose compression. White smoke - Water in the exhaust, head gasket gone? check for emulsion on filler cap and do a compression test. Blue smoke - burning oil, check valve stem oil seals, valve guide clearances or piston rings Black smoke - Fuel mixture too rich, go to a garage and have it tuned.
Why cars emit smoke?
Smoke can come from several things. White smoke when first starting on a cold day is normal. Black smoke indicates the wrong fuel/air mixture. Blue smoke indicates that the engine is burning oil.
