Will adding 1 liter of diesel to a gasoline car have any impact?

Adding 1 liter of diesel to a gasoline car will have an impact, leading to knocking, insufficient power, increased carbon deposits, and aggravated internal wear of the gasoline engine. Reasons why gasoline cars cannot use diesel: Diesel engines do not have spark plugs, and if diesel enters a gasoline engine, it will start burning violently before the spark plug ignites, causing abnormal pressure in the combustion chamber, known as knocking. Additionally, the fuel injector pressure in gasoline engines is much lower than in diesel engines. When diesel is added to a gasoline engine, it cannot be fully atomized, resulting in incomplete combustion. This leads to insufficient power, unresponsive acceleration, increased carbon deposits, clogged fuel injectors, aggravated internal wear of the gasoline engine, and even engine failure. How to handle mistakenly adding diesel to a gasoline car: After discovering the mistake, do not start the car to prevent diesel from entering the fuel system. Then, tow the car to a 4S shop or repair shop, drain the diesel completely, and refill with gasoline. If you notice abnormalities after driving for a while, such as severe vibration, poor acceleration, or the engine stalling, you should immediately call for assistance. In addition to draining the diesel, the repair shop will need to clean the fuel system, replace the gasoline filter, and conduct a comprehensive inspection.
