What Happens When You Put Diesel in Gasoline?
What Happens When You Put Diesel in Gasoline?
I read an article recently about a fueling station in California that had accidentally put diesel into their gasoline tanks. Several vehicle owners had to have their vehicles repaired as a result of this mix up.
In this video I talk about what happens to your engine and fuel system when you put diesel where gas should go. I also talk about what happens when you put gasoline in your Diesel engine.
If you’re curious about this topic, watch the video and find out what happens.
