no diesel has butane instead of octane so it will not work
87 octane regular if it is a gasoline engine. Diesel fuel if it has a diesel engine.
no it is not safe, it can cause the engine to run very hot. recommended fuel for the small single cylinder engines is 91 to 93 octane.
An '85 Chevy Caprice Classic takes standard unleaded fuel (87 octane) unless if it is a Diesel engine. Higher octane is okay to use, however I am uncertain if it is okay to constantly use a higher octane.
well if it is an high performance output egine use high octane or go get a bottle of octane booster and regular gas.if low output use regular gas
Assuming it has a stock engine, you might want to use premium if it knocks. If not, regular is probably fine. If it does knock, you may have to use octane booster or retard the timing.
When petrol is mixed with diesel engine the engine will not start due to the following reasons;Fuel in diesel must be compressed at 400o and above to approach compression power while petrol start at 150oPetrol have lower density than that used in diesel enginePetrol use spark ignition lather pressure ignitionPetrol have different octane number than that used in diesel enginePetrol fuel cannot produce much power as that produced in diesel engine with real diesel fuel.Will not accomplish diesel engine phases
The diesel engine is on compression.
NO, do not use diesel oil and a gasoline engine.
No you can not use gas engine oil in diesel engine oil because processing of diesel engine is different from gas engine oil. If you use this then it damage your vehicles.
for any Volkswagen gas engine do not use anything lower than a 91 octane rating.
If it's a diesel engine mower than you can convert the used veggie oil to bio diesel and use it however if your mower is gas powered than no you cannot, the reason being that diesel engines use high compression in order to be able to ignite and use the low octane diesel or biodiesel fuels where as gas engines do not need to do this as gas is highly combustable even at atmospheric pressure. And just another thing about this I have heard of people mistakingly putting gas into a diesle engine and blowing the engine apart because of the explosive combo of super high compression and the gasses high octane rating, NOT Good. Hope this helps
Depending on the mix (how much petrol vs how much diesel), the car will either not go at all, or may go but feel jerky. It is obviously not recommended to put ANY diesel in a petrol engine, simply because of the way a petrol engine works vs how a diesel engine works. In a petrol engine, the fuel is made to combust only with a spark, and therefore requires a much higher pressure for combustion to take place. The higher the octane of the fuel, the more pressure is needed for the fuel to combust. A diesel engine works in the opposite way, where it needs less pressure and no spark to combust. If you have accidentally put diesel in a petrol engine, don't drive the car. Drain the fuel. You may have to replace to fuel filter and the spark pugs Comment: To clarify the above logic. CAUTION!! Diesel engines have compression ratios of 15:1 or more so that PRESSURE (not spark) ignites the fuel. Petrol engines use SPARK to ignite the fuel. The high octane rating of petrol is so that it does not PRE-IGNITE (pink) under pressure. Raise the compression ratio and you need a higher octane rating, which is why some petrolheads use Avgas (130 octane) on their high performance engines. Diesel engines need HIGH pressure to operate, petrol engines can use LOWER pressure to work, but need higher octane rated fuel if the pressure rises.
