I am out of oil with a delivery scheduled for tomorrow. I went out to the shed to get a 5 gallon can and found a 5 gallon kerosene can filled. I have no smell therefore can not tell if the clear liquid is kerosene or gasoline. I hate to throw it away if it is kerosene, I could burn it in the heater
when a car is driven, the gasoline it burns as fuel releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
No, gasoline is not a nutrient. Nutrients refer to substances that provide nourishment for living organisms to function properly, whereas gasoline is a fuel used to power vehicles and machinery.
Is gasoline a element a mixture or a compound
Gasoline was first used as a fuel for internal combustion engines in the late 19th century, with the invention of the first gasoline-powered automobile by Karl Benz in 1885.
Gasoline is primarily found at gas stations, which are dotted along roadways in urban, suburban, and rural areas. It is stored underground in large tanks and pumped into vehicles through fuel pumps. Gasoline is a common fuel for vehicles such as cars, trucks, and motorcycles.
You will destroy a diesel engine if you run gasoline in it. Do not even start the engine. You will have to drain the fuel tank, and all fuel lines.
Ipecac, my friend (it'll induce the body to vomit). Since gasoline will burn and eat your insides
If they filled the vehicle, sure.
The lead will destroy the catalyst in the catalytic converter and the car may have trouble passing a state emissions inspection as a result. It only takes 1-3 tanks of leaded gasoline to render a catalytic converter completely useless.
Gasoline is a fossil fuel.
I'm afraid you need to clean the whole system out. This is a job for a garage as they have to drain the fuel tank and clean it out. Then they have to flush the fuel lines all the way to the injectors and finally change the fuel filter(s). Diesel fuel is not the same as gasoline and works completely differently. They don't "mix". Sorry.
they can't use gasoline fuel only aviation fuel
Flex fuel does not mean you can use diesel. It means the engine can run on pure gasoline or on E85 gasoline. If you put diesel in this vehicle it simply will not run. Diesel can only be used in a diesel engine.
Gasoline's primary use is as fuel, what else would it be considered
Fuel and gasoline are not the same, although gasoline is a type of fuel. Fuel refers to any material that can be burned or consumed to produce energy, including various substances like coal, natural gas, and diesel. Gasoline specifically refers to a refined petroleum product used primarily in internal combustion engines. Therefore, while all gasoline is fuel, not all fuel is gasoline.
Running gasoline in a diesel will do serious damage to the engine. You must remove all the gasoline from the tanks, & fuel lines. Purge all gasoline. If you have not starter the engine just drain the tanks.
The answer to the question of: "What happens when you put in diesel gas instead of regular unleaded?" is this...Diesel fuel (engines) rely on compression to ignite it. It isn't necessarily flammable.Gasoline relies on a spark from a spark plug. Diesel engines have a higher compression ratio than gasoline engines do, and thus provide more torque to the drivetrain (that's why 18 wheelers use diesel engines, instead of gasoline engines).So, if you put diesel fuel into a gasoline engine, there's not nearly enough compression to ignite the fuel. Probably the only thing that would happen is that your gasoline car or truck would run very rough for a time before all of the diesel fuel runs out.If you accidentally put diesel fuel into a gasoline fuel tank, the best thing to do is siphon it out.Finally, I can't imagine anyone accidentally putting diesel into a gas car since the diesel nozzle at the pump is a lot bigger than the gasoline nozzle...and it's that way for a reason. ;-)Though it does still happen every day when people fill up their cars without thinking exactly what they doing...For more information please see the answer to the Related Question shown below.I did this stupid thing today. It costs me 800 USD in the Toyota dealer. I did some internet search earlier. It would cost a lot fewer if you go other places. It would be no more than 500 USD. Be aware of this. Good luck!
