One runs in an more bigger truuch or think it does not hurt the engen more then gas and gas uses other stuff to make it run


duaaijaz: no it's wrong
schmimar: WHat you mean]
duaaijaz: answer is wrong
schmimar: The major difference between diesel and gasoline is the way these explosions happen. In a gasoline engine, fuel is mixed with air, compressed by pistons and ignited by sparks from spark plugs. In a diesel engine, however, the air is compressed first, and then the fuel is injected.
schmimar: Actually, gasoline and diesel fuel both are products that are made from crude oil. ... When you spray gasoline into a cylinder, it starts to vaporize immediately, so that as soon as the spark plug fires, the gasoline detonates and powers the engine.
duaaijaz: yeah its the right answer
schmimar: Miles Per Gallon. Although diesel engines enjoy a sizeable miles per gallon (mpg) advantage over gasoline engines in automobiles, truck engines are a different story. The actual advantage enjoyed by diesel engines in light and medium trucks is less than 2 mpg.

Answer:

Engine Operation Differences

For gasoline engines, the intake stroke generally involves pulling air and fuel into the combustion chamber. At this point, a diesel engine is only pulling in air. Next is compression, where both engine types squeeze down the air into a small pocket.

Efficiency Differences

While diesel engines continue to build a reputation of struggling with emissions, they actually have highly impressive fuel economy numbers in comparison to their gasoline counterparts. Indeed, diesel engines are significantly more efficient in most cases, especially when the throttle pedal is only partially depressed. Much of this is due to differences in the strokes described above, in combination with the self-ignition temperature.
