How would that even be possible?
You'd have a hell of a lot of smoke!
I guess you'd put in the diesel, boost the octane with some additive or other, it might be okay actually. It'd knock if it wasn't octane boosted eh?
I knew someone who had a diesel injector rigged to his fuel line, when he wanted to make a huge amount of smoke he pushed the plunger and a few teaspoons of diesel were injected into the fuel line along with the petrol. He could vary the amount of smoke by how much he injected.
But that was just a smoke maker, he wasn't running the bike on diesel.

Someone else I knew in the brit army once filled a large petrol generator with diesel by mistake, and it seemed to run okay so they just used it and refilled it with proper petrol once they'd run the tank dry.

BSA Bantam will run on diesel. But it's a pig to start. Kero works better.

In both cases performance is reduced from derisory to illusory.

you couldnt do it...the detonation from compressed diesel is a lot more than a standard petrol engine, unless you were able to strengthen the crank case head and cylinder sleeves then i wouldnt even try it....a modern petrol motor will self destruct within 2 mins...as the motor will over heat and melt to a molten mess

Um, I didn't, but some tit did. We await his confession.

The guy who owned the farm across the road from my folks was always getting petrol nicked out of his farm supply tank, which was petrol one end and diesel the other. My dad suggested he turn it through 180 degrees next time he was filling it. He did. A couple of days later there was this Mark IV Zephyr stopped on the side of the road about 1km away, with a very strong smell of diesel coming from the fuel tank...

And yet I'm sure you'd be one of the first to agree there are those that live life - and those that don't. What I know, what I've seen and what I've done are three discreet things... where one stops and another starts shall be an enduring mystery.

My real talent is simply a lack of shame in saying the things I'm thinking. Remind to tell you about hanging out on a street corner near K' Road the other day. Social experimentation at it's finest LOL!

Something like that. Waiting for a friend for lunch - meet at the Dog's Bollox (pub, just off K' Rd close to work). I get there - and it's shut so I thought - well... I'l wait.

So I lean on the corner of the building. All the traffic heading up Newton Road stops at the lights and backs up enough to get down past me, so I thinks to myself - here's a laugh! I took on an ambiguous pose, and start eyeballing the women in the cars waiting for the lights to change to green....

GREAT FUN. All the disaproving looks were hilarious (there's me, shirt, suit pants etc on - typical office garb). One lady in particular (cute too...) looks over and when I eyeballed her she looked away MUCH too quickly LOL... guilty dirty thoughts obviously going on in THAT car LOLOL!!!!

So when my lunch date (female) showed up I told her " you know 1/2 of Newton thinks you just picked up a hooker don't ya?"

All well worth it. Fucken funny too

Yup - not sure, but I enjoy them. I just think I'm honest... when something interesting comes along I examine it - and ask more questions rather than looking away, getting prudish (for want of a better word) and walking away.

And trust me - I'm not alone in this.
