About all the countries are facing the economy problem during the paucity of petroleum and almost all petroleum demand through imports. A Substitute for Diesel engine fuel is of huge consequence to the Fuel scarcity. In this study Experiments were carried out in the diesel engine by using water melon seed oil and Blended watermelon seed oil. Three blends of watermelon oil such as 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% are used in this experimentation. The Blended oil is heated externally up to boiling temperature 67 o C before injecting into the test cylinder. Engine performance is very high at the same time lowest specific fuel consumption were attained while using the Blended fuel. The experimental results are discussed the oil content of Water melon seed oil remarkably high. Lesser NOX where induced while in 100 % of bio diesel used in the engine and very stumpy Carbon dioxide (CO) where induced while the engine operates at maximum load. Comparatively the blended fuel significantly improves the Engine performance and Break thermal efficiency to the other Blended fuels. Hence the Blended Fuel is Very suitable to the Diesel Engine to operate the engine at utmost consignment.
