Imagine running low on diesel in the middle of nowhere and finally finding a gas station\u2013 only to find out you’ve absent-mindedly filled up gasoline in your diesel engine instead of diesel. Even if this doesn’t happen to everyone, this scenario somehow still catches up to you if you deal with fuel for long enough. And if you do, the first question that comes to mind is, would gasoline prematurely ignite diesel engine? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In short, yes, it does. Since diesel engines don’t have spark plugs, they operate by combustion that happens through compressing hot air. So, when gasoline, a highly volatile fuel, is added to a diesel engine, an eruptive mixture is created with the hot air combined, which causes premature ignition and even detonation. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In most cases, adding gasoline to a pool of diesel does no good to your engine and will leave costly damages. Hence, to warn you, we’ve included all the do’s and don’ts of this terrifying situation in this article. To know more, read on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
