A little bit, like a liter - nothing will happen.
A little more - lots of smoke and engine knocking. Drain the tank if it knocks.
A lot of diesel - engine won't start or run. It won't hurt anything, but has to be pumped out. The residue will burn OK. There's no reason to change any parts, just drain an refill the tank.
A engine exchange will be necessary. Remove the diesel and install a gasoline type.
no... a diesel will run a lot better on gasoline than a gasoline motor will run on diesel... If you fill it with diesel fuel you should have no problems Correct. You should not have any problems after draining tank and refilling. If you started the vehicle or tried to start the vehicle it may not be a bad idea to change the fuel filter. If you ran the vehicle on the diesel - gasoline mix until it died before you realized what happened it is possible (but not likely) to have internal damage; but at this point there is nothing you can do but drain the fuel, change filter, refuel, and see what happens.
Both Diesel and Gasoline Engines are basically German inventions. The Diesel Engine was invented by Rudolf Diesel The Gasoline engine by Nikolaus August Otto :-)
Refining oil into gasoline and diesel.
It depends how much petrol was put in. If it was a "full tank" draining the tank and the system would be advisable. If it was just a small amount, the mixture can be cut by adding more diesel with some motor oil mixed into it It is a common practice in times of diesel shortages to use motor oil with a small amount of gasoline added to it in place of diesel. You will have to use your own judgment as to how much diesel and/or oil to add.
it's compressed and is ignited
If you fill a gasoline engine with diesel, you will normally be able to start the car and drive a few miles, but after a short amount of time the car will die out. There will likely be no permanent damage to the car. If it was gasoline in a diesel motor, it would be much worse.
Yes Gas does not burn completely in the diesel motor. The unburned gas can then backfire suddenly through your exhaust while driving. I know.
Gas: 5W30 synthetic, gasoline-rated oil. Diesel: 5W40 synthetic, diesel-rated oil.
They stopped making them in 2006, all 200 machines have a kabato diesel motor
Anything is possible. It may however not be very probable without many skills and much cash. Chris
A gas engine ignites gasoline in the piston chamber with a spark from a spark plug. The expanding gas then pushes the piston out and the motor moves forward. A diesel engine uses diesel fuel, different from gasoline, and the fuel is compressed by the piston until it ignites, sending the piston out. There are no spark plugs in a a diesel engine. Some diesel engines will have "glow plugs" which are used to initially start the engine but once started, compressing the fuel is the method of ignition.
