Wow the toilet paper tissue issue hit my store. My huge toilet tissue aisle was full the day before, but completely empty the next day, and the stuff failed to show up on the delivery. I bet Friday's delivery wont have enough of it either. I hope I don't have to make my own toilet paper, in the future.
It’s a fun idea but in reality it’s only 4/5th of the same fuel.. Only 1/5th of the wrong one. The only difference in the first 4 fuels is the octane level which doesn’t matter a lot.
lars kristensen Cars don’t need the extra oil like mopeds do. Neither does it hurt the car engine. It may have more compression = more power. And blue smoke coming from the exhaust.
@@Engineer9736 oh i know they arent 2 strokes :). and yes it can hurt the engine. piston will get buildup of burned oil . short term use yes it works but not good for it. alot of components is affected . carfromjapan.com/article/car-maintenance/what-happens-when-you-run-car-on-two-stroke-fuel/ this describe it roughly.
@@MrLarsgren You will only get carbon buildup if you use cheap, shitty 2T oil, decent 2T oil will leave liquid deposits instead of solid. This is so the engine can evacuate the deposits, and to lubricate powervalve components.
Sunny Agarwal I wonder if a little diesel would stop my dad's engine from having a loud knocking sound after its been at near top speed for 15 minutes (also something is spilling oil.. Something for MOT i geuss)
Diesel is hardly flammable. Flamable, yes but hardly even counts when you have to use a butane torch just to light it, it's more of compressible than flammable
When my old Volvo Duet with B 16 engine stopprd out in the bush, I drove it to next gas-station ( about 5-6 kilometers ) with LAMP-OIL ! ....................
Old Volvo engines were completely bulletproof. The last bulletproof ones were the inline 5. My family used to own a 1999 V70 2.5 20V. Fantastic car. I'll never forget It.
@@whendeathdeclareswar7458 I don't think 79 octane fuel is available anymore these days. But who knows. In the past, there was definitely 79 octane fuel.
@@matouslitera8073 I was born in the GDR. ;) I don't remember exactly, but my father always called the gasoline "bell water or knock water" because it had a low octane value and he had to set the ignition on our Skoda to "late" to prevent knocking.
Alex yeah, honestly it was a pretty shit video. “Let’s mix premium with regular and e10 and a little kero and see if a Lada still runs?.?” Of fuckn course it’ll run, my Toyota van runs on this cocktail daily. I put some e96 moonshine in it just for shits and giggles.
it would be the end of this diesel, the diesel is a little oily and grease the dieselpump and the ejector. When you fill normal gas in it it dies in minutes.
It'll just combine octanes. You can do that if you need like 90 octane fuel and your station only has 87&95. And Diesel will actually run if you mix it with gas just not the greatest
Correct. Most fuel stations (in the US anyways) only have 2 tanks for petrol, but pump 3 grades. One tank is 87 and one 93. 89 octane is literally just pumped from both tanks and mixed as it pumps.
@@murkinstock Interesting. In germany they have seperate tanks for each. Thats usually one for super E5(95), one for super E10(95), one for super plus(98) and sometimes one for premium gasoline(100/102)
I'm proud to say that I already knew that your car would run perfectly fine with 20% diesel. :) Oil and gasoline assimilate each other very nicely, and gasoline engines are quite tolerant. With that added lubrication of the diesel, it might have actually *helped* your car.
@@mikkohelenius Injectors need lubrication or else they will seize up. Gasoline does not have the lubricating properties of diesel fuel. But using gasoline instead of diesel should not affect the engine itself in any way. It will damage only the fuel system.
Not true, I put 60 litres of gasoline in my 70 liter Volvo v70 d5 and drove for 5 km then looked in my mirror and saw only white smoke and drove 3 km to get of the highway then parked the car and called for assistance. The fuel pump and 1 injector had to be changed and I drove the car for another 150000 kms totalling 385000 kms before selling it.
Back when I worked for a guy with a hay grinder service we would have 2 Cleare pumps going in the truck tanks 2 red fuel going in the grinder lol looked funny
You should try making a car with “one-wheel-drive”, so (depending on if it’s FWD or RWD of course) only e.g.the left rear wheel being powered, and the other 3 wheels not.
Have to admit it, these Lada,s are tougher than people give them credit for!! It just keeps coming back for more!! All the diesel will do is provide upper cylinder lubricant, diesel is after all light oil,
I imagine a Lota would run on straight kerosene. A little diesel is probably healthier than putting ethanol in like in the US. Try filling the tank with pure starting fluid! Maybe stand back a bit too. That would be cool! I saw a guy who ran out of diesel rummage through the back of his truck and he poured in a few quarts of 10w40 and some fuel system cleaner. The truck ran good to the next fuel station .
Modern no. Older mechanical, you betcha itll run. Especially the old 7.3L diesels that you actually could start and drive on gas if needed. Actually, many older diesel people blended gas in to cut the gelling
What's going on with all these comments asking for them to pee in the fuel tank? Urine has no energy content. If you want to piss somewhere, piss into the DEF tank in a diesel vehicle!
I once put a gallon of diesel in my car accidentally, and filled it to the brim with petrol (gas) to dilute it. (It was an old carburettor car, no cat or any crap like that) I thought it ran better than it ever ran before!
Can you please test the 70/30 myth? Here in new Zealand they say. If you have an petrol engine. You can run it on 70% diesel and 30% petrol mixture. And same goes the other way around. If you have a diesel engine. You can run it on 70% petrol and 30% diesel mixture. I personally don't believe it. But i believe it will be a great test for you to try out and prove or debunk this myth.
@@irgant that's true. But the myth says that 30% diesel is all you need to keep the pump and the engine lubrication running smoothly. That's why it would be good to test it out
the different fuels must have different densities and float on top of each other. for example diesel floats on water like oil. thats probably whats happening here and the normal fuel is at the bottom.
I am doing it with my car all the time, and it just dont run well when cold, than it just smell and goes a bit slower, but it is ok. Old gas and diesel mixed. When it is really bad, just add 10liters of 100octane and it goes. And I am driving 2009 Ford Mondeo 2.3 petrol
A ton of old truckers told me, adding a gallon of gas per 100gal of diesel will make an old mechanical diesel (especially non turbocharged) will make them put out a flame from the stack pulling hills lol
We used to mix a small amount of diesel with our regular unleaded gas back in the day in the belief that it'd lubricate the valve stems. Older carbureted engines don't have a problem with burning diesel/gasoline mixes but, I hear that fuel injection would be problematic with it.
Your lowest octane is 92 ??? in Canada 87 is the common low octane grade, diluted 10 to 15 % with ethanol. 93 or 94 octane would be considered ultra premium, and I have never seen 100 octane.
What could go wrong ?...as that machine probably uses the poorest fuel anyway. Anything better stood NO chance of hurting it. Now if one had been diesel, THAT would have been of interest !
In the olden days.. there was like 92, 96 and 98.. later 92, 95 and 98... the 96 was literally just a mix of 98 and 92... Nowdays they have separate tanks for it because of production cost. But the effect is the same. If you mix, 92 with 100 you end up with 95 or 96 octane fuel. If you mix it with already 95 octane fuel... it's really not even mixing. So what's really in the tank is 80% 95 octane fuel... that of cause the car run just fine on... and 20% diesel. So what happen with diesel. Diesel have very long chains, so it is hard to ignite with the spark plug. But there is 80% gasoline, and it will in turn ignite the remaining 20% diesel. And when it burns it dont matter any more. So can you go 50/50...yes. 20/80 in the other direction... I would say probably 100% diesel. Well, you might not be able to start on it. But if the engine is warm and already started. It might still run.....and yes. There is videos of that on youtube.
