Can a Diesel Vehicle Run After Adding Gasoline?
1 Answers
Diesel vehicles cannot run after adding gasoline. The specific analysis of this situation is as follows: Adding a small amount of gasoline: Long-haul freight drivers have a common practice: during winter in cold regions, they often add a small amount of gasoline (worth a few dozen yuan) to the fuel tank. This is because gasoline has a higher freezing point than diesel, which helps prevent the diesel in the tank from freezing. Adding a little gasoline to a diesel vehicle is not a problem, but it mainly depends on the size of the fuel tank and the amount of diesel already in it. Adding a large amount of gasoline but not starting the vehicle: If the proportion exceeds that in situation 1, but the mistake is discovered before starting the vehicle, simply have a mechanic drain the fuel tank and refill it with the correct fuel.
