the difference is the heat addition type

In Otto Cycle the heat addition is Isochoric ((constant volume))

In Diesel Cycle the heat addition is Isobaric ((constant pressure))

When was the four stroke petrol engine was invented?

The 4 stroke or 4 cycle engine was invented in 1876 Nicholas Otto in Germany. This is the earliest 4 stroke and is commonly called the Otto cycle engine. The Diesel 4 stoke was invented in 1893 by Rudolph Diesel in Germany.


What does diesel mechanics do?

Diesel mechanics is the knowledge to design, build, and mantain, diesel engines. This type of internal combustion engine works on a thermodynamical cycle called Otto Cycle of Four Stages for Diesel, which has a different behavior of that one followed by the gasoline engines, the latter called Otto Cycle of Four Stages (for gasoline). Diesel is a fuel with higher octane than gasoline, to the point where the use of a spark to ignite the fuel/air mix turns pointless, so the spark plug is ommited and the mix is instead ignited by cylinder compression, making the mix to heat due to drastic pressure increased and volume reduced.
