Want this question answered?
it depends on the size of the diesel engine going in so yes and no
No damage it just will not run on diesel fuel. Drain the tank, flush the fuel lines, replace the fuel filter and fill it up with fresh gasoline. Use starter fluid to get it going.
The diesel battery is bigger as it take a lot more to get a diesel engine going. Best bet is to charge the diesel battery using the petrol, connect the 2 and leave the petrol engine running.
Signs of turbo going out are engine power is down or engine smokin oil leaking from turbo turbine shaft seal into combustion Chamber
You are going to want to see about 12psi at max boost. If you have exhaust leaks from the y-pipes that can cause it to be lower and may not even notice unless you are monitoring the MGP. Hope this helps
this will happen on all diesel engines (if its going to make reasonable power) its basically soot/carbon from the exhaust and unburnt diesel. on some high power turbo diesel cars there is proper plumes of black smoke. you only need be worried if there is blue smoke while on boost as this means the turbo is shot. but black = good
AnswerI have an 03' powerstroke 7.3 with 560,000 original miles on the engine and tranny, and she is still going strong.
I'm confused, do you mean when you are going in reverse or turning the engine over in reverse direction?
it can be but is not going to help with performance. depending what sort of diesel engine you have, depends on what you can do to improve performance a good diesel mechanic can turn up the fuel pump, change injectors etc. vehicles with computers can have chip added that vastly improves performance and is easiest way to go
you have done damage to the crank/pistons, expect an engine replacement ,sounds like hydro-loc normally happens to diesel though
Depends...by "diesel tractor" do you mean "farm tractor" or "semi tractor"? You're SUPPOSED only to put off road diesel in a farm tractor. That's why they make it. If you have put it in a semi tractor, get hold of your dispatch/brief/lawyer right away for advice on what to do. If you have a pre-2007 engine your trouble is almost exclusively legal. If your engine is 2007 or 2010 compliant, you're probably going to screw up your EGR and diesel particulate filter, which will break your engine.
if the engine is backfiring it will damage the maf,.
