Why is petrol not used in diesel engines or diesel in petrol engines?

Because the engines will not run with the wrong fuel to to their design. Although both diesel and petrol engines are internal combustion engines, they have differences that enable them to use these different fuels. A petrol engine ignites the fuel/air mixture by using a spark plug. A diesel engine in contrast has no spark but compresses air during the compression cycle. When air is compressed it heats up. Diesel is then injected into the cylinder and it ignites.


Why diesel engines called constant volume engines?

They aren't.Gasoline engines are (sort-of) constant volume engines while Diesel engines are (sort of) constant pressure engines.In a gas engine, the combustion process is so fast compared to the travel rate of the piston that it all happens in the same volume, before the piston has had much time to move away.In a Diesel engine combustion is so much slower that the piston will actually have time to move away while fuel is still being burnt.As the volume of the combustion chamber increases during burn as the piston moves away, the pressure will remain pretty much the same throughout the burn.

The largest warning light on the diesel Peugeot Partner dashboard is the Service Engine light. If it comes on during starting but goes out when the vehicle is started, there is no problem. If the light stays on, it is wise to service the engine.


What type pf fuel uses combustion to produce energy?

Gasoline and diesel are two common types of fuel that use combustion to produce energy. During combustion, these fuels react with oxygen to release heat energy that powers engines.


In a car with fuel injection during which stroke does fuel enter the cylinders?

Number 1, the intake stroke. Weather it is fuel injected or has a carburetor makes no difference. Most internal combustion engines today are 4 stroke engines. The four strokes refer to intake, compression, combustion and exhaust strokes that occur during two crankshaft rotations per working cycle of Otto Cycle and Diesel engines. The four steps in this cycle are often informally referred to as "suck, squeeze (or squash), bang, blow." Intake stroke


When were the Cheverolet big block engines developed?

The Cheverolet big-block engines were developed during the 1950s and the 1960s. The big-block engines where developed to keep up with the larger vehicles that became popular during that time.
