It lubricates. The FAA states that oil is the primary cooling element internally in the engine. It lubricates the moving parts that contact each other and allows heat to be dissipated away from these systems and components. Low oil can cause issues while still lubricating by not removing enough heat from these components.
"Diesel oil" or "Heavy oil" is another term for diesel fuel. Not to be confused with "engine oil for a diesel engine" which means lubricating oil specially formulated for use in diesel rather than petrol engines.
no diesel engines run on diesel or bio diesel or refined vegetable oil..
I am not sure what you are asking but putting oil for diesel engines in a gasoline engine with some oil in it would not be good, or vise versa
Diesel engines can be operated with 'biofuel' with the proper adjustments.
There is not a whole lot of difference if you are using the oil in an older diesel engine. The diesel oil of today has special additives to combat the soot buildup in the oil from the EGR. The diesel oil will get dirty a lot sooner on the late model engines. A 15w40 for a gas engine can be used in a diesel.
The C classification of oil is for diesel engines.
You need to make sure that it's oil specifically for diesel engines.
There are available many semi- and fully-synthetic oils which are formulated for diesel engines.
No it cannot. Petrol and Diesel are different.
Diesel engines are more efficient than gasoline engines.
diesel engines compress the fuel mixture much more than gasoline engines, diesel engines are always fuel injected while gasoline engines have the option of being carbureted, diesel engines usually cost more, diesels produce more power than a comparable gasoline engine, diesel engines have no distributor or spark system, and instead use glow plugs to ignite fuel, and diesel engines can be converted to run on vegetable oil with few modifications.
You mean "motor oil for diesel engines," rather than "diesel oil the fuel." And the answer is simple: No. It will not. All the popular and not-so-popular brands of diesel engine oil sold in the US carry two ratings: a "diesel engine rating" and a "gasoline engine rating." They do this because most trucking companies also own some gasoline engine vehicles, like pickup trucks for driving to the truck dealership on parts runs, and an oil rated for both gas and diesel engines allows them to put the same oil in all their vehicles.
