Diesel engines rely on very high pressures in the injection system.If you let them run dry you run the risk of getting air bubbles trapped in the lines. These bubbles can prevent the fuel from making it into the cylinder, at which the engine won't run. And getting the bubbles out can be real hard.
What else can I help you with?
How do you start my 03 duramax diesel after running out of gas?
Remove the fuel filter, fill it with fuel... IIRC, the Duramax has an electric fuel pump... cycle the key in the "on" position a couple times to let it prime.This is, of course, assuming that, when you say "gas", you actually mean #2 Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel, which is the only fuel you should be using for that engine, especially if it's 2007 or newer.If you ran that diesel engine on gas you probably destroyed the engine. That's why it won't start.
How can remove the air in diesel engine fuel system?
you need to crack loose the injectors and let the fuel pump push some fuel (and air) out around them then tighten them back up.

What happens if you put the wrong type of fuel into a 1993 Honda 50?
If your engine is not a diesel engine and you put diesel fuel in it is going to smoke allot and could cause internal problems. Now if your car is a diesel engine and you put regular fuel in it it probably wont run for long, but if you just put a different grade of fuel in you will be just fine. let say your car takes premium fuel (92 octane) and you put 89 or 87 octane in it the only variable that's going to change is maybe a little performance and fuel consumption

How do you drain a peugeot 306 diesel tank?
To drain the diesel tank of a Peugeot 306, first ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and the engine is off. Disconnect the fuel filler cap and locate the fuel drain screw, typically found at the bottom of the tank or near the fuel pump. Place a suitable container underneath, then open the drain screw to let the diesel flow out. Be cautious to avoid spills, as diesel fuel is flammable and should be disposed of properly.
How do you bleed a 205 diesel after changing the fuel filter?
Apply the prime pump mounted on the fuel pump for a minute or so. Then slacken the nuts that connect the fuel lines to the injector. Let an assistant start the engine until you see diesel oil pouring out, until there are no air bubbles left. Tigthen all the nuts again and the engine should run. When the engine is running, loosen and tighten each fuel line one by one, so there is absolutely no air left.
What happens when you put diesel into a petrol car?
Car doesnt run. Going Technically, In petrol engines the compression ratio used is around 10-12 (may vary according to model of car) and in diesel engines the compression ratio used is 20-22 (may vary according to model of car and manufacturer). So if diesel is put into a petrol engine the compression ratio of the engine is not sufficient for the burning of the fuel (diesel) so there is no power generated in the engine and also the spark that is induced in the petrol engine will not effect diesel hence at the end, during exhaust the fuel is let out (if exhaust stroke occurs) Basically Power is not generated and the engine is clogged and you might have to remove all the parts for cleaning. Depends on how much diesel you put in the tank. If it was allot, all you have to do is pump the fuel out of the fuel tank until it is empty then pour in 5 gallons of gasoline. Disconnect the fuel line from the fuel rail and turn the ignition on time and time again until all the diesel fuel is removed from the fuel lines. Now start the engine. No damage will be done. If you only put a little diesel in the tank just fill it up with gasoline and it should run. After your drive about 1/2 tank out fill up again.
Why is Ford Transit 120 diesel misfiring not all the timenow and again fuel pump has been changedI loosen a injecter while engine is running let diesel spurt alittle then tightenit back to normal?
Change the fuel filter, and check the fuel lines for cracks. It sounds like you are getting air into the system and even a small crack in a fuel line will do it.
How do you get a diesel to start in cold weather?
To start a diesel engine in cold weather, make sure you have a reliable battery that is fully charged. Use a block heater to warm the engine, and consider using a fuel additive to prevent the diesel fuel from gelling. Crank the engine with the glow plugs on for a few seconds before starting.
Why should you let the unit operate until the flame extinguishes?
to coat burner parts with diesel fuel and evacuate fuel from the fuel pump
