2. Dieseling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dieseling

   Dieseling (in the sense of engine run-on, and disregarding combustible gaseous mixtures via the air intake) can also occur in diesel engines, when the piston or seals fail due to overheating, admitting engine oil into the cylinder. A structurally failing diesel engine will often accelerate when the throttle is released, even after fuel ...

4. Crankcase dilution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_dilution

   Crankcase dilution occurs when the fuel oil from the engine gets into the lube oil of the engine. This can be caused by the walls being wetted due to the fuel condensing in the cylinder. If the engine is cold, or there is an excess amount of cooling around the cylinder, [ 1 ] the fuel oil will condense and have a higher chance to end up in the ...

5. Diesel engine runaway - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_engine_runaway

   Diesel engine runaway is an occurrence in diesel engines, in which the engine draws extra fuel from an unintended source and overspeeds at higher and higher RPM, producing up to ten times the engine's rated output until destroyed by mechanical failure or bearing seizure due to a lack of lubrication. [1]

6. Wet stacking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_stacking

   Additionally, wet stacking can result in a build up of diesel fuel in the engine which does not combust due to the low temperature in the engine. This results in a reduced fuel economy. This fuel leaks through the cylinders and dilutes the engine oil. If not frequently changed, this diluted oil can lead to increased wear on the cylinder and ...

7. Fuel polishing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_polishing

   Fuel polishing is the technical cleaning process used to remove or filter microbial contamination from oil and hydrocarbon fuel in storage. It is essentially the removal of water, sediment and microbial contamination from such fuels as diesel , red diesel and biodiesel .

8. Diesel exhaust - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_exhaust

   While diesel fuel contains slightly more carbon (2.68 kg CO 2 /litre) than petrol (2.31 kg CO 2 /litre), overall, the CO 2 emissions of a diesel car tend to be lower due to higher efficiency. In use, on average, this equates to around 200 g CO 2 /km for petrol and 120 g CO 2 /km for diesel.
