In the United States diesel is not cheaper than petrol or gasoline, it is higher.
No, diesel is heavier.
Petrol is and bit more vicous and that diesel is a lot darker than petrol. Petrol burns quicker when set alight, however diesel burns more brightly!
The difference is that diesel is more oily than petrol, and is cheaper to produce.
because petrol is easer to burn than diesel
Depends on the car, if a car has petrol and diesel version than yes
first of all its engine. ADVANTAGES - petrol is cheaper than diesel so cheaper to run. petrol cars generally cost less than diesel (a few 1000). petrol engines are usually faster than diesel off the line and have a higher top speed than a diesel car with the same sized engine. DISADVANTAGES - petrol is less economical than diesel and also diesel cars are much better for over taking than petrol as it has more torque (pulling power)
diesel is usually more expensive but diesel cars usually have more mpg than petrol cars
Produce more petrol than diesel. :P
Diesel engines are more efficient and do use less fuel, but they do not cost less than a petrol engine, they cost more. Diesel fuel also costs more. A diesel engine will however last longer.
Petrol is primarily composed of hydrocarbons with chain lengths varying between 4 to 12 carbon atoms, along with small amounts of additives. Diesel is composed of longer hydrocarbon chains, typically ranging from 12 to 24 carbon atoms, with higher boiling points compared to petrol. Both fuels may also contain small amounts of sulfur compounds and other additives for performance and emission control.
cost of refining the crude oil ofcourse... In the UK diesel is more expensive than normal unleaded petrol.
