Gasoline volitility is much different than diesel. The diesel engine's very high compression ratio would likely cause gasoline to ignite before the piston ever reached TDC. It might run on gasoline for a few minutes, but there might be long term problems develop because of it.

Diesel gas is greater viscous and greater oily than petrol. The gas injection pumps for a diesel engine remember on the viscous, oily nature of Diesel gas for lubrication. Petrol does no longer furnish adequate of this, so it is going to injury the injector pumps immediately. Petrol is formulated for incredibly low compression engines and is made to no longer explode till ignited via the ignition gadget spark. interior the better compression of a Diesel engine, it particularly is probable to blow up properly till now the piston has reached suitable lifeless centre, no longer purely some engine rotation tiers till now. consequently the piston moving up meets an explosion coming down. injury effects, and intensely immediately. Holes in pistons, under pressure vast and little end bearings, broken piston rings, scored cylinders, burnt and broken valves and purely a number of the a probability outcomes.

No,it is harm to the engine....... In petrol engine, petrol is burnt with the help of spark plugs... But in case of diesel engine , diesel gets compressed and after that it will burn.

No, a diesel engine cannot operate on gasoline.

It can, but it will blow your engine up. Octane rating is way too low.

I don't think it will run too long. Too much compression, it will detonate the gas.
