Yes, diesels last longer than gas engines, but it's mainly due to its manufacturing. A typical diesel engine is bigger, heavier, and has sturdier components to withstand the higher compression ratios.

In the current market, it is common to see new diesel trucks putting out over 1,000 lb-ft of torque from the factory. That's just in the consumer space. When it comes to heavy-duty industrial ...

Westinghouse Electric Corp.'s Marine Division has begun work on a $14.5 million contract from Avondale Industries to provide diesel engines for the U.S. Coast Guard's (USCG) newest polar ...

We all know diesel engines produce Earth-moving torque to outclass gas engines in pulling power and heavy-duty workloads. We ...

Consequently, natural gas engines require smaller turbochargers since less air is needed for stoichiometric combustion compared to the leaner burn in diesel engines. For example, a diesel engine ...

Diesel engines don’t have spark plugs; instead, they use the super-heated air created by their high compression ratios to ignite the diesel fuel as it’s injected into the cylinder.

With that in mind, the typical life expectancy of any of the Ford Power Stroke diesel engines can be 200,000 to 500,000 miles, an some 7.3-liter Power Strokes have seen million-mile birthdays.
