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 150o
- Petrol have lower density than that used in diesel engine
- Petrol use spark ignition lather pressure ignition
- Petrol have different octane number than that used in diesel engine
- Petrol fuel cannot produce much power as that produced in diesel engine with real diesel fuel.
- Will not accomplish diesel engine phases
