What is the most flammable out of gas and diesel?
Gasoline is the most flammable between gas and diesel due to its lower flash point and vaporization rate. Diesel is less flammable because it requires higher temperatures to ignite compared to gasoline.
Gasoline in diesel engine?
Gasoline engine is an internal combustion engine where a diesel is an internal compression engine. Gasoline is highly flammable and explodes when an electrical spark is applied to it where diesel explodes when it is put under pressure

What happens when diesel is burned in an engine?
It will not run or if it is mixed with gasoline it will not run correctly and smoke depending on how much diesel was added.
Is gasoline volatile?
Yes, gasoline is volatile because it can easily evaporate into the air at normal temperatures. This volatility is what makes gasoline highly flammable and able to ignite easily.
What fuel is mixed for a drip torch?
A drip torch typically uses a mixture of gasoline and a flammable, less volatile liquid, such as diesel fuel. The common ratio is often around 50% gasoline and 50% diesel, which helps ensure a steady drip and an even burn. This combination provides a reliable ignition source while minimizing the risk of excessive flare-ups.
Is diesel flammable?
Actually, Diesel is not flammable, it is combustible. The difference is the flash point. Diesel does not flash until 143 degrees Fahrenheit. Anything between 100 and 200 is combustible; less than 100 is flammable. Compare it to "gasoline" which has a flash point of -42 F (I think).
Why are fire trucks and paramedic trucks diesel?
It's much more efficient (higher BTU rating in diesel than in unleaded gasoline), and it's much less flammable.
