What does diesel mechanics do?
Diesel mechanics is the knowledge to design, build, and mantain, diesel engines. This type of internal combustion engine works on a thermodynamical cycle called Otto Cycle of Four Stages for Diesel, which has a different behavior of that one followed by the gasoline engines, the latter called Otto Cycle of Four Stages (for gasoline). Diesel is a fuel with higher octane than gasoline, to the point where the use of a spark to ignite the fuel/air mix turns pointless, so the spark plug is ommited and the mix is instead ignited by cylinder compression, making the mix to heat due to drastic pressure increased and volume reduced.
Will aftermarket chips gain horsepower?
In diesel engines, yes. In gasoline engines, not much.
How much compression should a diesel have?
A diesel engine requires at least a 20:1 compression ratio, or about double a gasoline engine. The PSI this translates to depends on the size of the cylinder. You will need to consult the manufacturer's service manual.
Where does kerosene come from?
Kerosine may reffer to: If you referring to jet fuel, is a higher fraction of refining gasoline. If you referring to tracktor fuel, is lower fraction of refining gasoline ( lower than diesel, but higher than mazut ) (pls somebody correct my "chemical" English)
Main advantages and disadvantages between compression ignition and spark ignition engines?
A spark ignition engine is a gasoline engine. A compression ignition is a diesel engine.basic difference between compression and spark ignition engine is ,compression ignition is a diesel engine. spark ignition is a gasoline engine.diesel engines compress the fuel to a point where the fuel explodes, thus giving ignitiongasoline does not compress to explosion, therefore it needs need a spark to ignite the fuelspark ign. is gasoline. comp. ign. is diesel.A compression ignition engine is typically a diesel. It compresses air so much that the heat from the compression is enough to cause the fuel to ignited once injected. A spark ignition engine is your average gasoline-burning car engine. It uses a spark plug to ignite the air/fuel mixture instead of relying on compretssion ignition.A compression ignition engine uses very high compression of the air to heat it self up and the fuel is injected into the cylinder which self ignites (a diesel engine is a compression ignition engine).A spark ignition engine uses a lower compression ratio and requires the use of a spark to ignite the fuel (a petrol engine is a spark ignition engine).Because the oils used for a diesel have a higher calorific value, they have a better fuel economy, They also do not need extra energy usage to keep the engine running, unlike the energy that is lost to power the spark plugs from the generator/alternator which is taken from the useful energy produced by the engine.
What happens if you put gasoline in a diesel dodge truck?
get that gas out of there as much as you can and then fill it with diesel a little regular gas will be ok and is ok to mix with diesel and will actauly clean it a little
Can you mix diesel with regular gas?
In a gasoline engine, definitely not. There are times when it is not inappropriate to add small amounts of gasoline to diesel for a diesel engine.
Is gas cheaper, overall, when using a diesel truck?
In most areas of the country, regular gasoline and diesel are about the same price. Therefore a diesel truck will have similar operating expenses to one that uses regular gasoline.
Can regular engines run on diesel fuel?
Gasoline engines cannot run on diesel. Only a diesel engine can run diesel. And a diesel engine cannot run on gasoline.
What is diesel gas and how does it differ from regular gasoline?
Diesel gas is a type of fuel commonly used in diesel engines. It is different from regular gasoline in terms of how it is ignited and its chemical composition. Diesel fuel is ignited by compression rather than a spark, and it contains higher energy density and lower volatility compared to gasoline.
What do I do when I put half diesel and half gasoline in my tank instead of gasoline?
Get the system darined ASAP
How do you decrease smoke belching?
Either use gasoline instead of diesel, or get the best kind of diesel.
Does it cost more to produce diesel fuel than regular gasoline?
I'm going to go with "No" as gasoline requires more refining than diesel does.
What happens if petrol is used in diesel engine and vice versa?
If gasoline is used in a diesel it will damage the engine. If diesel is used in a gasoline engine it will do no real damage as the engine will not run.
What happens if you put petroleum gas into a car?
If it is a car which has an engine that runs on regular gasoline (gas or petrol), and as long as its engine doesn't need the "high octane" type of gasoline - such as certain sports cars - then it should run just fine!But if the car has a diesel engine, you risk causing a lot of damage if you put gasoline fuel into the tank instead of diesel fuel... If that is what you were asking about, please see the answers to the Related Questions shown below.
Does diesel fuel damage your motor when it is used instead of regular gasoline?
It won't run at all on it. Entire fuel system has to be flushed. Eventually it will stall until that is done.
What happens if you put gaoline in a diesel?
You could damage the Engine because Gasoline is potent than Diesel
