Actually, Diesel is not flammable, it is combustible. The difference is the flash point. Diesel does not flash until 143 degrees Fahrenheit. Anything between 100 and 200 is combustible; less than 100 is flammable. Compare it to "gasoline" which has a flash point of -42 F (I think).

Every diesel is only flameable in a fine sprayed mist
