Why is diesel emit more smoke than gasoline engine?
Diesel is a fuel with approximately 15-19 carbon atoms in a molecule.Whereas petrol has only 5-9.When air is mixed with diesel inside the combustion chamber it forms more molecules of carbon dioxide and monoxide.This results in producing more more pollutants.These pollutants come out in form of smoke.This is more in diesel than petrol engine.
