I believe you are looking for the Auto-Ignition temperature:
Autoignition temperature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auto-ignition_temperature)
In this article it also lists the autoignition temperature of several chemicals.
I believe there are different grades of diesel and petrol and so you would have to specify them more clearly to get a clear answer on those.
