Run it out of oil.
You cannot burn diesel fuel in a gasoline engine period. A gasoline engine will not run on diesel. So legality is a mute point. A gasoline engine and diesel engine are totally different in design and the way fuel is burned. The fuels are not interchangeable.
An engine that is made to run on E85 differs from a normal gasoline engine in several ways. An engine that is made to run on E85 uses E85 as a biological fuel source whereas a normal gasoline engine that is made to run on normal gasoline runs on or uses gasoline--that is gasoline or natural gas. Both engines' designing mechanisms differ accordingly. For instance, an E85 engine's mechanisms allow it to operate on only ethanol gas but a normal gasoline engine can work on normal gasoline. Notably both engines would look different as their operative mechanisms are designed to operate differently by running on different fuel ingredients and substances. But not necessarily. This may not be likely for an engine's typicality and normality. Engines do look different in many ways but not always; they may also look the same, and in fact they do. In the case of these two engines, the question is not about whether they look different but rather if they work differently. An internal combustion engine--a typical gasoline-based engine--is an example of a normal gasoline engine. It is one of the oldest types of engines used in running motoring machines. Therefore, the many ways in which an engine that is made to run on E85 differs from a normal gasoline engine are functionality, look, design, and capacity in particular. The way in which an engine that is made to run on E85 differs from a normal gasoline engine is in terms of its power source and the way it works or its way of working.
The engine will seize and lock up way before it gets hot enough to turn oil to ash.
Whatever you do, don't swallow!
The purpose of a gasoline car engine is to convert gasoline into motion so that your car can move. Currently the easiest way to create motion from gasoline is to burn the gasoline inside an engine. Therefore, a car engine is an internal combustion engine -- combustion takes place internally. The engine turns the explosion that takes place into Horsepower & Torque. Torque gets the car moving and Horspower keeps it moving.
Gasoline is a nonrenewable resource.
Diesels are more efficient than gasoline engines because of the way engine speed is controlled (diesels control speed with the amount of fuel injected, whereas gasoline engines control speed by how much air gets in), and because diesel fuel contains more chemical energy than gasoline.
If you run it that way, you end up shelling out a lot of money in repairs, basically.
Best & easiest way to destroy a transmission- atuomatic or manual
Supply of fuel (Gasoline or CNG) should be stopped. Try to start the vehical with no fuel supply. It will comsumed the pressure build up due to Vapor Lock & engine will start. Then after engine star , you can open the fuel supply.
The best option is to buy a new electric car or get it professionally converted. Working with battery fluids can get dangerous and expensive. Keep the gasoline car to save the environment.
The main reason is that the way Diesel and Gasoline engines works is complete different, the gasoline needs a spark to explode and generate movement. The diesel explodes with pressure, the pressure of the fuel on the cylinder is what makes the explosion, so in a diesel engine you don't need an electric system to generate a spark. The compression in a diesel engine is a lot higher that a gasoline engine. All diesel engines have diesel injectors, gasoline engine works with injectors and carburators. Because of all this differences and more the maintanence is different, oil change periods, air filters, fuel system, electric system, belts, valves.........
