Dual Fuel Engine
The Dual Fuel engine is a type of engine which uses a mixture of gas fuel or diesel fuel or can work off of diesel by its self. The dual fuel engine is not capable of working on gas alone. These engines do not have ignition systems and do not use spark plugs.
As diesel is not a pure gas, and it is not a pure diesel designed engine, it has some disadvantages in the department of Methane slippage as well as fuel efficiency.. Like for instance, the fuel efficiency can be 5% to 8% less than in a comparable lean-burn, spark-ignited engine at 100% load. It could even be lower or higher loads.
