The differences between diesel engine oil and gasoline engine oil are: 1. Different API ratings: Diesel engine oil ratings start with 'C'; Gasoline engine oil ratings start with 'S'. 2. Different combustion flame temperatures: Diesel engine oil combustion flame temperature is 1800 degrees Celsius; Gasoline engine oil combustion flame temperature is 600 degrees Celsius. The functions of engine oil are: 1. To alleviate friction and high temperatures; 2. To reduce gas leakage and prevent external pollutants; 3. To prevent contact between water, air, acidic harmful gases and parts; 4. To buffer the pressure rise at the engine cylinder port; 5. To flush away dirt generated on the working surfaces of parts.
