What is diesel fuel?
Diesel fuel is the kind of fuel used by diesel engines. Its a combustible fuel refined from crude oil - just as is gasoline - but diesel has a much higher flash point than gasoline. Its grade is measured in cetane rather than octane
What type of fuel can be used instead of diesel in some cars?
Only diesel should be used but in a pinch or emergency kerosene can be used. Diesel is usually number 2 fuel and kerosene is #1 fuel. By the way jet fuel is kerosene. So dont use it in a diesel to often, the higher octane rating could damage the engine over time.
Is ethanol in diesel fuel?
Ethanol is not typically used in diesel fuel; instead, diesel often contains biodiesel, which is derived from vegetable oils or animal fats. Ethanol is primarily used in gasoline to enhance octane ratings and reduce emissions. While some alternative fuels may blend various components, conventional diesel fuel does not contain ethanol.

No, black pipe is not suitable for diesel fuel lines. It is typically used for gas and water applications and can corrode when exposed to diesel fuel, leading to leaks and safety hazards. Instead, it's recommended to use diesel-rated hoses or tubing made from materials specifically designed for fuel applications, such as rubber or certain plastics, which are resistant to the chemicals in diesel.

What's the difference between unleaded and diesel fuel?
Unleaded fuel is used in gasoline engines, while diesel fuel is used in diesel engines. The main difference is in how the engines ignite the fuel - gasoline engines use spark plugs, while diesel engines use compression to ignite the fuel. Diesel fuel also has a higher energy density than unleaded fuel.
Can I used unleaded fuel in a diesel van?
If the van has a diesel engine, then you MUST use diesel fuel. Unleaded gasoline will destroy a diesel engine. Diesel fuel is also used as a lubricant in a diesel engine. The use of any other fuel except diesel will result in serious damage. If you have put unleaded in your diesel, do not start or drive this vehicle until you drain the tank and change all the fuel filters.If the van has a diesel engine, then you MUST use diesel fuel.
