The instructions on the one I got said, not for use with fuel injection. Can this be used on a diesel engine?

This is a low pressure gauge, can only be used on the transfer or upload pump of a diesel engine which is 4 to 7 psi.This is the pump that transfers fuel from the tank to the fuel filter and to the high pressure pump.I have it on my 6.5 td and it works fine.

No, don't believe it can be used, as the fuel pressure is much higher for a diesel.

You should be able to use this gauge on a diesel or gas engine, just as long as you know the fuel pressure does not exceed the 15psi max pressure of the gauge. It can damage and or cause the gauge to leak.

Use diesel oil in diesel engines only. The additives in the oil are different from that of motor oil for gasoline.

I don't know, but they say that no aditives should be put into the fuel pror to using the funnel. I have my doubts that I will work with a gas mixture, because the oil acts like an aditive.

I don't know but I don't see why it wouldn't work unless gas/diesel seals are different material or something?

I would not. This is a lube additive, not fuel additive. May mess up your injector or reeds. Use only a HIGH quality 2 cycle oil for your engine. Trust me, cheep 2 cycle oil results in big problems later.

This distributor will not work for fuel injected vechicles, only for those with a carburetor. thanks

The answer is yes AND no. It will work on the common rail diesel engines like the Ford 6.0 as those develop 45-55 psi. It will not work on direct injection pump engines like your John Deere tractor or older diesel truck engines that use metering pumps.

Hello,not at all,Diesel engine use high pressure,there are special diesel pressure gauge.Thanks.

Yes this product can be used for Diesel engines . It can used for either motor oil or transmission oil

If it is not adjusted correctly for the type of fuel you use it could. Might doesn't. I use kerosene . Diesel probably do it more

I dont know the exact model for diesels. Id say look it up with manufacturer, but i do advise o. Diesek you use a conditioner on a regular basis. The new diesel fuel in thr USa is very low sulfur which affects the seals and injectors greatly.

This works with an electric signal received from the spark plug cable. It will NOTwork with a diesel since a diesel engine doesn't have a spark plug and a glow plug would not allow for consistent electricity

Yes. I only use water, never diesel and it worked just fine. I still used a little surfactant, but in reality I'm not sure it needed that either. Dry weather during spraying takes care of that.

Check the specks to see if it is intended for gasoline. I only know that it is intended for diesel fuel.

I don't think the dye will work on fuel leaks, and could screw up the fuel injectors. If you can't see or smell the leak anywhere, one or more of the injectors could be leaking into the engine.

Sorry...I haven't used my pump yet....Are you pumping Diesel Fuel? I don't think it is made to pump gasoline...I think it has to be lubricated by what it is pumping.

this can be used on the 7.3 diesel if the only reason why it wouldn't work would be due to pressure.... the 7.3 turbo diesel doesn't use an injection pump and furthermore you are looking for about 60 psi at idle. but to get the most accurate reading it should be tested under load. Not everyone that doesn't have a degree in Diesel mechanics should post about stuff they don't know....
