      Depending on the diesel engine (age) you could probably use a mixture of crude oil and vegetable oil to run it instead of gasoline. The original diesel engine, developed by Rudolph Diesel, ran on vegetable and peanut oils. Since diesels use higher compression to ignite their fuel, compared to gasoline engines which use an artificially created spark to ignite the fuel, this gave them a larger range of fuel types.
      Now let me say I don't recommend just pouring vegetable oil in your diesel truck, newer diesels would need a lot of modification to run properly like this, but if you have an older model diesel truck, then just mix it with some old motor oil and you should be fine.

      The original diesel motor was created to run off peanut oil, and in concept current ones could. Older diesels do it easier, but new ones require heavy modifications to do so.

      It’s because the ecu has a thing in that is programmed to accept the fuel ⛽️ of the manual. So if it says 89 then putting 91 wouldn’t do any thing . Even EV are similar. A guy who has a Tesla did a test, got 440v and thought based on math that it would charge his car in like 5 minutes or so, but the cars transformer can’t handle it so it restricts the v so it’s was almost a waste. I think he said he would normal take a charge of 30-50 percent like 3 hours but it cut off like 3-5 minutes. So he was like why? So he thought that if he gets an converter so he can put his tesla it would work. Nope 👎. He also could have damaged his car. I know a guy who killed his go cart by plugging in a huge 440v fried the batteries 🔋 and motor.

    In Sweden, we have 95 octane and 98 octane gasoline to choose from. Also the E5 and the E10 fuel are the most common. The diesel fuel often contains as much as 7 percent RME and 35 percent HVO. Some diesel cars can run with 100 percent renewable fuel such as HVO100.

      I think the UK uses the RON at the pump so you see higher numbers for the same gas. In the US they take the average between RON and motor octane so our octane sticker at the pump has a lower number. I believe in general that makes the US pump octane 3 points lower than the RON.

    Most modern cars will run fin on 87 to 89 fuel, the car's computer and sensor's are designed to compensate for fuel quality. The other thing depending on what vehicle as well as how you drive, vehicles that state premium fuel recommended 91+, will also safely run on regular. However if you run diesel in a gas engine you will require a fuel system flush, however gas in a diesel most likely damage motor.
    Best thing if you accidentally mix up diesel or gas, do not run the vehicle have it towed. The tank can be drained and cleaned with no damage to the engine or fuel system. I've had to empty a few car's and large truck's due to this mistake.
    I have been a licensed mechanic for over 20 year's, most of our customer's run regular fuel with no real issues, aside from saving money.

A 1986 2.8 litre V6 that does over 30mpg as standard and can achieve 35 on some highways. She deserves the best and I would even consider sullying her with anythng less than 100 octane!

    If you must add lower octane gas to your car just add enough to get to the next fuel stop that has your preferred octane fuel. A diesel fuel nozzle won't fit into a standard gas tank inlet. Most cars go a long way (50-100 miles) after their fuel gauge reads empty.

    So I bought a Subaru Legacy and put 87 in it thinking nothing of it, been getting bad gas mileage and the car doesn’t want to start right away, will stall unless I tap the gas. Dealer told me put premium 93. This sound about right ?

    What happens when you put the wrong electricity in a tesla

  • @stephencannon3140
    @stephencannon3140 4 роки тому +9

    If you have to go lower on the octane rating then be safe.......put minimum amount to get your trip complete and dilute with proper octane rating ASAP. Maybe even run a couple of tanks of the required octane to get back to normal. Expect decreased performance and fuel economy so adjust driving habits accordingly.

    Diesel won't hurt if you put in a gasoline engine but the opposite will hurt and it's recommended to keep driving it until you ran out of diesel

  • @DataLog
    @DataLog 4 роки тому +3

    Higher octane fuel doesn't cost more because of additives. Additives aren't required. It's just a denser fraction of crude oil.
    In fact, higher octane fuel is cheaper to produce.

    The fact is no Toyota, (Other than the Toyota Supra that has a BMW engine) uses a grade of gasoline above higher than 87. The electronic control module of most Toyota's is tuned to 87 Octane.
