No, a diesel is a compression firing engine and a petrol is a spark firing engine. Diesel fuel will not burn in a petrol engine with spark plugs.
You can convert a petrol engine into a diesel engine by changing the fuel injectors. The fuel filters will also need to be changed.
because a diesel engine ignites its fuel with pressure, and not with a spark like a petrol engine. that is why a petrol engine does not need as high a compression ratio as a diesel engine
Petrol & Gas engines are spark ignited engines where as diesel engines are compression ignited engines. Petrol engines works with explosion of fuel air mixture due to spark from spark plug inside the cylinder. Diesel engines works with combustion of fuel air mixture due to compression, compressed mixture attains a very high temperature which exceeds the flash point of diesel and starts burning inside the cylinder and the hot gases after burning of fuel misture exerts force on piston which makes the diesel engines work. Diesel engines are highly efficient than petrol engines.
I would recommend not running the engine until the fuel is drained. Any amount of petrol/gasoline in a diesel can cause engine or fuel system damage.
No. A petrol or gasoline engine will not run on diesel fuel.
Petrol in a diesel engine will destroy the engine.
No, diesel engine require diesel fuel. Put petrol in a diesel engine and you will destroy it.

I don't know what a 'petrol electric fuel' might be. You certainly can't use petrol in a diesel engine.
If the engine has spark plug it is said to be petrol engine, and if it has a pump to inject fuel then it is diesel engine.
Diesel fuel is designed for diesel engines, which have a different combustion process than petrol engines. Using diesel fuel in a petrol car can damage the engine components, as diesel fuel may not burn efficiently in a petrol engine, leading to poor performance and potential engine damage. Additionally, modern petrol cars are equipped with fuel systems designed specifically for petrol fuel, not diesel.

Because one has a petrol engine and the other has a diesel engine. Petrol/gasoline does not ignite the same way as diesel. It also does not have the lubrication qualities that diesel has. Gas in a diesel engine will damage the fuel system if the diesel very quickly.
If you put petrol in a diesel vehicle do not start the engine. Petrol will do serious damage to a diesel engine. You must drain all the petrol out and flush the fuel lines.
