Diesel engine misfires can be caused by several factors, including faulty fuel injectors, which may lead to improper fuel delivery, or issues with the fuel quality, such as contamination or incorrect cetane rating. Other potential causes include air intake restrictions, low compression in the cylinders, or malfunctioning sensors that affect engine timing and performance. Additionally, worn-out glow plugs can hinder cold starting, leading to misfires during initial engine operation. Regular maintenance and diagnostic checks can help identify and resolve these issues.

Does cold diesel make your car go better?

No, never put diesel in a gasoline engine it will foul up the sparkplugs in your engine, clog it up, and make it smoke alot. Cold Diesel in a diesel engine isn't too good either because when diesel gets cold it gels up, that is why most diesel engines have a built in heater to warm up the engine and fuel before starting. Hope this helps
