Cannot be used. Because gasoline and diesel engines have different combustion principles. The following is the extended content: Principle: Gasoline engines are spark-ignited, while diesel engines are compression-ignited. A mixture of gasoline and diesel cannot be used in either gasoline or diesel engines. If used in a gasoline engine, it may cause knocking and lead to excessive combustion deposits and carbon buildup. If used in a diesel engine, the higher auto-ignition point makes it difficult to compress and burn, which can also cause knocking and damage the engine. Solution: If a diesel vehicle is mistakenly filled with gasoline at a gas station, do not start the car. Immediately contact the original 4S dealership to drain the mixed fuel, clean the fuel lines, and minimize damage to the powertrain.
