Diesel vs. Gasoline Engines: Understanding the Difference

While diesel engines are sometimes unfairly labeled as less efficient than gasoline engines, the truth is quite the opposite. Here’s how diesel engines differ:

• Fuel Combustion Method:
  Gasoline engines use spark plugs to ignite the air-fuel mixture. Diesel engines compress the air-fuel mixture to generate heat, causing spontaneous ignition.

• Fuel Economy Advantage:
  Although diesel fuel typically costs more than regular gasoline, a diesel engine provides better mileage, delivering superior fuel economy and longer driving distances per gallon.

• Durability and Power:
  Diesel engines are built for endurance, offering higher torque for towing and carrying heavy loads.

Major automakers like Ford, Chevrolet, RAM, and Volkswagen continue to develop advanced diesel vehicles that combine performance, efficiency, and reliability.

Types of Diesel Engines We Service

At Greer Automotive in Oak Harbor, our Quality technicians specialize in servicing all major diesel engine types:

• Power Stroke Engines (Ford):
  Known for their lightweight design, power, and outstanding fuel efficiency.

• Duramax Diesel Engines (Chevrolet):
  Built for heavy-duty performance, featuring high torque, exhaust braking systems, and enhanced fuel efficiency.

• Cummins Diesel Engines (Dodge RAM and others):

No matter what diesel engine your Dodge, Ford, Jeep, or Kia vehicle uses, you can trust Greer Automotive for expert diagnosis and repair.

Signs Your Diesel Vehicle Needs Service

A diesel engine is built tough, but like all mechanical systems, it requires proper maintenance. Watch for these warning signs:

• Difficulty Starting the Engine:
  Hard starts or failure to start often point to low compression or fuel delivery issues.

• Unusual Noises:
  Knocking, rattling, or other irregular sounds usually signal problems with injectors or internal engine components.

• Excessive Smoke (Black or White):
  Smoke of any color can indicate an imbalance in the fuel-air ratio, internal leaks, or other critical issues. Immediate inspection is advised.

If you experience any of these problems, don't delay—bring your vehicle to Greer Automotive in Ottawa County for a comprehensive diesel diagnostic and repair service.
