Abstract: The need for energy in the form of fuel oil is increasing every time. The engine is diesel-fueled. However, the availability is not in accordance with the needs because it still comes from fossil energy that cannot be renewed. Then there is need to solution for further action to overcome this problem, which is the use of a mixture of diesel fuel with corn oil . Between the use of pure diesel fuel and biodiesel corn oil. The method of this research is to conduct experiments. Beginning with the incorporation of diesel fuel raw materials with oil, which will also be used as experimental materials in diesel engines which will also be used for electrical circuit currents from up to 4000 watts when the engine is turned on. The result show that the use of corn oil can affect the performance of diesel engine, such as is more efficient than the average diesel fuel, the torque and energy generated is greater reaching an average of 54% greater in load maximum, higher total engine efficiency up to 2 times as much, and is economically not too significant for use in the long run. Therefore, it can be concluded that the effect of adding corn oil as an alternative fuel is a solution that can overcome the problems of the fossil fuels and also have a good impact on the performance of diesel engines.
