Here's why:
* Diesel engines work differently: Diesel engines rely on compression ignition, meaning fuel is ignited by the heat generated from compressing air in the cylinders. Carburetors are designed for spark ignition engines, where a spark plug ignites the fuel-air mixture.
* Fuel injection: Diesel trucks use fuel injection systems. These systems deliver precisely measured amounts of fuel directly into the cylinders, unlike a carburetor which mixes fuel and air in a chamber before it enters the cylinders.
