diésel: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que biodiésel y diésel se escriben con tilde en la primera e. [...] Tanto biodiésel como diésel son voces llanas terminadas en consonante distinta de n o s; por tanto, según señala la Ortografía académica, deben escribirse con tilde. El acento recae en la e, por ser esta la vocal abierta del diptongo. [...] Se recuerda, además, que en parte de América se emplea el sustantivo dísel, también adecuado. 2, record 2, Spanish, - motor%20di%C3%A9sel
