Diesel engines are generally designed to run with a lean air-fuel mixture, meaning they use more air and less fuel compared to gasoline engines. However, under certain conditions, such as during heavy acceleration or cold starts, they may temporarily run richer to provide more power and reduce emissions. Overall, the efficiency of diesel engines comes from their ability to operate with excess air, leading to better fuel economy and lower emissions in typical driving scenarios.

How can you set diesel engine timing?
If you are referring to ignition timing, diesel ignition timing is primarily controlled by the injector timing. This is also why diesel engines run such high injector pressures. The timing is very carefully controlled by the vehicles computer.
How do you set the timing on a 1991 jetta diesel?
You only set the timiming for engines with spark plugs, and diesels don't use spark plugs.
Are catalytic converters required on diesel cars?
From 1994 onwards, they were required to have a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst. From 2008 onwards (in the US), a set of emissions standards requiring highway diesel engines to have a Diesel Particulate Filter went into effect. From 2012 onwards, engines over a certain displacement required a complete aftertreatment system, with a DOC, DPF, and Selective Catalytic Reduction, which uses Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF).
What can one do with a roots blower?
A roots blower, also referred to as a roots-type supercharger, is used as a supercharger in engines. It operates by pumping a fluid with a set of lobed rotors. It is used in two-stroke diesel engines.
Diesel engines parts and their function?
engine block, it's function is to carry the engine or where the cylinder head set, piston, it;s function is to compressed the air and fuel.
What does it mean when a 350 GMC pickup truck engine will not turn off?
If it's not a diesel, it's probably the ignition switch. Older non computer controlled engines can continue to run (badly) after the ignition is shut off due to a very high idle or a badly set timing.
What set mean?
Diesel Generator Set
How do you set time on diesel watch DZ7069?
How do you set the time & date on diesel watch DZ-7069
Why do some duramax or cummins diesels blow black smoke out of the exhaust?
Their injection pump is set too rich, and lets more diesel into the engine than the engine can burn. The partially/badly burned diesel is what comes out as black smoke.
Can you run E85 gas in your 96 Geo Tracker 2 dr 4wd?
Hi, I'll weigh in on what I know. E85 can be run on engins that are set up for it and some early GM engines are able to as well as the new Flex Fuel vehicles are but our engines are Suzuki engines and as fafr as I know and have read, are not able to. I don't know what would happen if we tried to run E85 in our engines. Does anyone have any info as to what would happen if we did run E85? I hope someone will chime in on this. Thanks, Steve H.
How do you set timing on a 1.9 diesel 306?

Why is Chevy 305 carburated engine running rich?
my truck was doing the same thing before i had the choke set right, because it was partially closed, making it flood out and run rich
