it loses power it starts knocking or it throws a rod out the side of the block
"Blow-by" is not good for any engine. It indicates worn internal engine parts (rings)
No the compression in a Gasoline is only 8 to 1 in a Diesel it is 22 to 1 so it would blow up
Only gas engines use blow off valves.
If they mix with the wrong things, it can blow out.
Probably blow engine gasoline has a much lower flash point than diesel fuel
Hi there,blue smoke on a diesel motor is normally fuel,and the smell will be unburn diesel,rough start and heavy smoke that will disapear as the engine getshot.
Rudolph Diesel in 1897. Go to wikipedia.org and type in "diesel engine" and it will tell you everything you want to know.
Rudolf Diesel invented the Diesel engine in 1897 (which is why it is called the "Diesel Engine"), but i do not know if he was the first person to use it in an automobile or not, though I believe he was.
is this a diesel truck?does this engine have a turbo?if it is a diesel with a turbo,it will blow white smoke when cold till it warms upif it continues to blow smoke check your air filterother reason if it continues to blow smoke is the turbo is about to crater get it checkedalso check engine oil for coolant lossif coolant is leaking into cylanders,this will cause white smoke
You will need to have some information ready. It is good to know the horsepower and the torque of your diesel engine.
YES. But due to carbon build up and blow back within a diesel engine you will still need to keep to your oil change scedual and can not extend it. Diesel oil turns black quickly.
No, Diesel oil is needed. Regular oil will not provide the necessary lubrication and it will cause a lot of blow-by smoke as it leaks past the rings since it is too thin.
