    Diesel engines are heavier so a 2500 cc diesel engine will be heavier than a 2500 cc petrol engine because stronger parts are needed for their operation‚ this extra weight will reduce their performance levels. The turbo diesel engine will gain a higher percentage of the increase in horsepower but will not automatically become faster than a similar sized gasoline engine with a turbocharger offering the same amount of boost. Complexity is reduced in a diesel engine as there is no ignition system

    A jet engine‚ like a rocket engine‚ is a reaction engine. It works by throwing mass in one direction and taking advantage of the reaction in the opposite direction. In the case of a jet engine‚ the engine burns fuel (like kerosene) with air from the atmosphere. The burning fuel heats and expands the air‚ and this hot air shoots out of the exhaust-end of the engine to create thrust. Most modern jet engines use a turbine to improve the efficiency of the engine and allow the engine to work at low speeds

    because of a liquid accelerant. The notion that a flammable or combustible liquid caused flames to reach higher temperatures had been repeated in court by arson sleuths for decades. Yet the theory was nonsense: experiments have proved that wood and gasoline-fuelled fires burn at essentially the same temperature. Vasquez and Fogg had cited as proof of arson the fact that the front door’s aluminum threshold had melted. “The only thing that can cause that to react is an accelerant‚” Vasquez said. Hurst
