What is the difference between diesel and unleaded fuel?

Diesel fuel is heavier and oilier than unleaded fuel, which is lighter and more volatile. Diesel engines compress air to ignite the fuel, while unleaded fuel is ignited by a spark plug in gasoline engines. Diesel fuel is more energy-dense and efficient, but unleaded fuel produces fewer emissions.


What are the key differences between unleaded and diesel fuel, and how do these differences impact vehicle performance and efficiency?

Unleaded fuel is used in gasoline engines, while diesel fuel is used in diesel engines. The main difference is in their ignition process: gasoline engines use spark plugs to ignite the fuel, while diesel engines rely on compression to ignite the fuel. This difference affects performance and efficiency, as diesel engines typically have higher torque and better fuel efficiency compared to gasoline engines. Diesel fuel also has a higher energy density, which can result in better mileage for diesel vehicles. However, diesel engines tend to produce more emissions than gasoline engines.
