What exactly constitutes a multi fuel engine

[sdasdona]

What exactly in the engine makes it a multi fuel? ie the pump, injectors etc. Does an indirect injection make it multi fuel? Can a regular diesel be changed to multi-fuel? Any help in this area would be appreciated. thank in advance

here is the answer for anyone who is interested. Multi fuel is accomplished with indirect injection and a lower compression to accommodate more volatile fuels such as gasoline. There is folks eat it raw.

Might need to do a little more research. just sayin

More reading is necessary for sure! Multi-fuel deuce engines have 22 to 1 compression, regular diesel engines have 17 to 1 compression, gasoline engines are usually less than 10 to 1.

Multi fuel

Multi-fuel engine comprises of various engines and some significant machineries. It compresses the fuel and releases octane on a higher space after combining gas or fuels...
