Is diesel more efficient than regular gas?
Diesel takes longer to burn than gas so, accordingly diesel is more fuel efficient.
What are the pros and cons of diesel vs gas generators?
Diesel generators are generally more reliable than gas powered ones. Diesel fuel is a bit more cotly than gasoline but oes further.
What happens when you mix gas and diesel?
In small amounts diesel will not affect operation, but eventually as the mixture becomes more diesel than gas it will not burn in a gasoline car, and will damage a diesel vehicle. If you have mixed more than 5% diesel with your gas you should probably drain and start over to avoid damage.
What kind of gas will last more miles?
DIESEL is more economical than normal petrol/gas
What happens when you mix gas and diesel together in cars?
In small amounts diesel will not affect operation, but eventually as the mixture becomes more diesel than gas it will not burn in a gasoline car, and will damage a diesel vehicle. If you have mixed more than 5% diesel with your gas you should probably drain and start over to avoid damage.
What pollutes more gas or diesel?
Diesel
Why is diesel gas better than regular gas?
Diesel gas gives more mileage (miles per gallon) than regular gasoline. You must, of course, have a vehicle that has a diesel engine because diesel fuel cannot be used in an engine that runs on regular gas! Depending on local government taxation policies, in some countries diesel is cheaper to buy than regular gas whilst in other countries it is more expensive! Diesel fuel is thicker and "stickier" than regular gas so, if a vehicle's fuel system ever needs cleaning - fuel tank, fuel lines, fuel pumps and fuel injectors - it is a more difficult and expensive job to do on a diesel vehicle.
Are diesel engines better than gas engines?
Are diesel engines better than gas engines is sort of a yes and no question. Diesel engines generally get better fuel mileage and last longer overall. But, gas engines are easier to maintain on your own and gasoline is much more readily available than diesel fuel is on the whole.
Why diesel engine is better than petrol?
Diesel engines are generally more efficient than gas engines. A Diesel Pickup truck will normally get far more miles per gallon than a gas one and still have equal or greater power available. Plus diesel engines tend to last much longer than gas engines easily running well over 300k miles with little to no issue.
Why a dieel engine is more efficient than a gasolene engine?
Diesel engines are more efficient than gasoline because chambers are different. A diesel engine has better gas mileage.
Why do diesel engines have more torque than gas engines?
Engines with longer piston stroke, higher turbo boost pressures, and diesel fuel has more energy in it than gasoline.
Why does diesel cost more than gas?
It's a supply and demand issue. Demand for gasoline is much greater than that for Diesel. Therefore, the supply of Diesel is less which drives up the price.
