Will adding diesel to a 92-octane gasoline car have any impact?
1 Answers
Adding diesel to a gasoline car will affect the engine. Here are the specific details about adding diesel to a gasoline car: 1. Impact: Gasoline and diesel have different ignition points. Diesel ignites at around 220 degrees Celsius, while gasoline ignites at approximately 427 degrees Celsius. Therefore, if diesel is added to a gasoline engine, it may ignite prematurely inside the cylinder, causing engine knocking and significant damage to engine components. Diesel might also clog the gasoline injectors, leading to a situation where the vehicle cannot receive fuel. 2. Solution: Stop the car, turn off the engine, and call for a tow truck to wait for assistance. Do not continue driving to avoid causing further damage to the engine.
