Since a pump's operation depends on the viscosity of the liquid, I can see how a properly designed fuel pump would work on both gas and diesel engines. Automotive fuel must, by nature, all have roughly the same viscosity.
I would say it is a website search engine error. There is no way the diesel injector and the gas injector are identical! The pressures and combustion chambers are totally different for gas vs diesel engines.I was just randomly browsing around and came across this:
55585712 INJECTOR for 2014 Chevrolet Cruze
First off, holy wow are these expensive! But they do seem to last, so that's good. Anyway, the point of this post is in this verbiage below. How can it also fit a gas Cruze? Is this an error?
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This is a INJECTOR for your 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel with 2.0L L4 - Diesel engine.
THIS PART ALSO FITS:
- CHEVROLET CRUZE
Low pressure pumps could be the same, but not the high pressure pumps and the viscosity of gas is the same across temperature while diesel fuel shows a viscosity increase with decreased temperature.Since a pump's operation depends on the viscosity of the liquid, I can see how a properly designed fuel pump would work on both gas and diesel engines.

Yep. For some reason I read that as fuel pump, not injector.Time for a second cup.
Yeah - but are you an Albertan or a saskatchewanian? Do you wear the melon head with pride?They will not fit into the gas engines.
A - im a diesel cruze owner
B - Im a GM mechanic
C - the injectors are nothing like each other
