That increase is because the diesel engine can use seventeen to one
compression ratio. Making the initial costs and maintenance double that
of a low compression gasoline engine. A factor of ten in a road tractor
engines.

I will have to call you insane as usual, because diesels have no jets
or carburetors. All diesels have high pressure timed mechanical or
electromechanical fuel injection.

Cummins sells spark ignition versions of most of its diesels for
natural and producer gas use. The price isn't lower, it's higher.

Mercedes Benz, VW and everyone else outside the US builds diesel and
gas car engines on the same basic platform. The diesel is about fifteen
percent higher build cost because of the fuel system. The added
materials for strength add about two dollars.
