    save your money there is no way that a diesel engine has been converted to gas

    If the engine truely was a diesel to begin with and it has been converted, the person who did it really know that they were doing and to change it back to a diesel would be about as redicuoous as origonally changing it. It would be cheaper and a whole lot less hassle to buy a new diesel engine or just a different truck with a diesel engine.

    Don't bother trying to convert it back to a diesel, just go and buy one that's stalk. Diesel is more expensive that Gasoline but you get better fuel mileage and a lot more towing power.

    Forget about it. Gas and diesel engines are radically different. The cost and work would not be worth the effort.

    not a gasoline engine, ...My guy...it fairly is going to take a number of high priced variations to make a diesel to run off of that. whats up little ones...do not think of your gonna cruise yer ole mans diesel truck stealing your mothers french fry oil for gasoline...he would be lots dissatisfied on your stupididy and ask for paternity exams.

    If you can afford it I would change it back to diesel, you will get much more pulling power if you are going to tow something and better fuel economy.

    buy a diesel.

    Or change engine or most of the engine, the fuel system, find and replace anything that was cut off of truck when they changed it to gasoline

    It will be fun

    best thing to do is keep driving what you have, being gas is cheaper than diesel. if you can, trade for a diesel truck.

    you'll have to buy an engine... and have the fuel system drained and cleaned.

    There's going to be some other stuff to do, but if yo had to ask the question, you'll want it done by a professional.

    It will be expensive.
