What's the Difference Between a Diesel and a Gas Engine?

There are several key differences between diesel and gas engines. Diesel engines are typically more powerful and efficient than gas engines. They also tend to last longer, due to their higher compression ratio and increased durability. Diesel engines also tend to produce more torque, which is ideal for heavy-duty applications. Another key difference is that diesel is more expensive than gas. However, diesel has a higher energy density hence less of it is required in comparison. Diesel engines also require more maintenance than gas engines, due to their higher compression ratio and the need to change the oil more frequently. Power There are several key differences between diesel and gas engines that affect their power output. For one, diesel engines are typically more efficient than gas engines, meaning they can convert more of the fuel's energy into usable power. Additionally, diesel engines tend to have a higher compression ratio than gas engines, which also increases their po ... read more
