We use fossil fuels to power our vehicles with internal combustion engines. Like these fuels petrol, diesel (diesel) and LPG as divorced. We have no chance to mix this fuel as its use is generally optional and it is not a stable liquid like other fuels. Gasoline and diesel, on the other hand, can sometimes be mixed, although this is very rare.

With all the tiredness of the day to the gas station Imagine towing your petrol car to the place where the diesel was purchased. If you come across a moment when the pumper is also distracted, you must have loaded diesel into your car. What happens to your vehicle if this happens to you? Today we are going to explain to you what can happen to your vehicle in both cases. In any case, pay attention to this situation when you buy fuel.

What happens when diesel (diesel) fuel is put into a petrol vehicle?

It is actually quite difficult to load diesel fuel into a petrol car. Because the fuel supply of the vehicles mainly produced after 2000s differ from each other depending on the fuel itself. The inlets of the pumps that charge diesel (motor oil) are wider and It does not fit properly into the fuel inlet of the gasoline vehicle.

But sometimes it somehow works out and diesel is put into the petrol car. To better understand what would happen in such a situation, a little It is necessary to talk about the working system of gasoline vehicles.

Gasoline, a more flammable substance than diesel, must be burned in the cylinders when it comes to the engine. spark plugs are used. Spark plugs release the heat needed to ignite the gasoline, and the power is produced by explosions in the cylinders, the combustion chambers of the engine.

When diesel is loaded into a petrol car spark plugs have a hard time burning more oily and difficult to ignite fuel. In this process, the spark plugs fail to ignite the diesel, or even if they do, they have a lot of trouble doing so.

If the car does not start, then the vehicle can be completely cleaned off the engine and bypassed without any problems, but if the vehicle is started and moved in any way, then problems can occur. First, even if your petrol car runs on diesel. It will stop before it can go very far.

Because the vehicle’s filters are modified for gasoline, the vehicle is Black colored and intensely smelling smoke comes out of the exhaust. During this difficult combustion phase of the car engine, problems can occur in many parts, especially the valves. Nevertheless, a petrol car with other fuels will run into fewer problems than a diesel car.

What happens if gasoline is poured into a diesel car?

Diesel engines use spark plugs to ignite the fuel. It makes compression with the part called injector. This high pressure ignites the fuel. Gasoline, on the other hand, can cause serious damage to a diesel car engine as it is a more flammable gas and is not dark and oily like diesel.

Run diesel vehicles There are several chemicals in diesel fuel. Thanks to these chemicals, many parts of the engine, especially the piston, are lubricated and lubricated. If the vehicle does not have the characteristics of the diesel, Loading gasoline will damage engine components.

In many parts of the engine, especially the fuel pump erosion will be experienced and a road of no return will be trodden. If you drive a car with a petrol diesel engine for a long time, it may be necessary to lower the engine as it is, or even a new engine kit. For this reason, it is the right decision for those who use diesel vehicles to stay away from the gas pumps.
