Noun

diesel (countable and uncountable; plural diesels)

  1. A fuel derived from petroleum but heavier than gasoline/petrol. Used to power diesel engines which burn this fuel using the heat produced when air is compressed.
  2. A vehicle powered by a diesel engine.

Verb

to diesel (third-person singular simple present diesels, present participle dieseling, simple past and past participle dieseled)

  1. To ignite a substance by using the heat generated by compression.
  2. (automotive) For a spark-ignition internal combustion engine to continue running after the electrical current to the spark plugs has been turned off. This occurs when there's enough heat in the combustion chamber to ignite the air/fuel without a spark, the same way heat and pressure cause ignition in a diesel engine.
    The only reason the VW bug has a solenoid is to prevent it from dieseling.

Would an Old Diesel motor start easier on cold mornings with a few liters of unleaded petrol in it?
Q. Hey guys, I have an old 84 model diesel ute and im having some trouble starting it on cold mornings. Was wondering if a few liters of unleaded petrol mixed with the diesel would help solve the problem? If so would it be doing any damage to the motor?

A. probably wouldn't help it. probably would hurt it. try a block heater, or allowing the glow plugs to cycle a bit longer.

What temperature does diesel start gelling up?
Q. And what happens when you run a truck with gelled diesel in it?
Asked by Mark D - Sat Jan 20 22:33:10 2007 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It depends on the grade of diesel fuel, the additives in the fuel, and water contamination. When the temperature drops, wax crystals can form in the fuel, plugging the fuel filter and/or fuel line. This will prevent the engine from running. Diesel fuel #2 should resist gelling down to about -10 deg. F (-23 deg. C), while winter blends of diesel fuel #2 and fuel #1 (kerosene) can typically handle temperatures down to -4 degrees F to -20 deg. F. But some "winter" blends may gel at higher temperatures if it contains too much #2 diesel and not enough #1 (say around 18 to 20 degrees F). The pour point of the fuel (the point at which it starts to gel) can be lowered by additives, and my using heaters in the fuel filter, fuel tank and… [cont.]
