Petrol in a diesel engine will destroy the engine.
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.
No, diesel engine require diesel fuel. Put petrol in a diesel engine and you will destroy it.
No. A petrol or gasoline engine will not run on diesel fuel.
You can convert a petrol engine into a diesel engine by changing the fuel injectors. The fuel filters will also need to be changed.
I don't know what a 'petrol electric fuel' might be. You certainly can't use petrol in a 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.
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.
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
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.
The engine will stall and not run. No damage will be done. You will need to drain the fuel tank, replace the fuel filter, blow out the fuel lines, and prime the engine to get it started again.
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.
