What happens if a diesel car is filled with 92 gasoline?

Added gasoline diesel engine can still start, but it will lack power, operate roughly, have significant vibrations, slow speed, loud noise, and be unable to function normally, potentially even causing damage to the diesel engine. Below are the differences between diesel and gasoline engines: Ignition method: Diesel and gasoline engines use different fuels, have different ignition methods, and operate on different principles. Diesel and gasoline are two completely different fuels. Diesel has a lower auto-ignition temperature, around 220 degrees Celsius, and is more viscous and less volatile. Gasoline has a higher auto-ignition temperature, around 415-530 degrees Celsius, and is less viscous and more volatile. The working principles of diesel and gasoline engines also differ. Diesel engines use compression ignition, while gasoline engines use spark ignition. Different compression ratios: The compression ratios are different. Diesel engines have much higher compression ratios than gasoline engines. Diesel engine compression ratios generally range between 16-22, with some reaching up to 26, while gasoline engine compression ratios are smaller, generally between 8-11, with some reaching up to 14.
