Answer / nishan

see friends the answer is vv simple!!
if we use petrol in diesel engine the engine will continue
to fire till diesel is there due to the density difference
ie. petrol is lighter than diesel in density..
so after all the diesel has been used the engine will not
operate!!
similarly for petrol engine the engine will not fire when
diesel is poured because of the above reason!!

Answer / sugesh kumar

IF WE POUR DIESEL IN THE PETROL ENGINE - THE VOLTALITY OF
DIESEL IS HIGH AND FIRE POINT IS HIGH THAN THAT OF PETROL SO
THE ENGINE WILL NEVER STARTS
iF THE PETROL IS POURED IN DIESEL ENGINES THEN THERE WILL BE
HEAVY KNOCKING AND PRE-IGNITIN SINGE THE PETROL HAVE HIGH
VOLATILITY AND LESS FIRE POINT THAN DIESEL...THE ENGINE WILL
START
