2 diesel in my truck, I get 18 miles per gallon, with no. All turbine engine aircraft can burn kerosene without any damage, as well as diesel, but you do not have the anti microbial agents (like prist) and one would want to clean their filters and make sure that it was from a clean source. 2 has too much paraffin wax and gels at about 20 degrees. The only issue is Jet A, which is cleaner and drier as far as lubrication properties, but it has the antimicrobial agent in it and has the lowest BTU rating. It is because the off road machines have larger injectors and are not as efficient in burning the fuel upon an increase in acceleration. The fuels do not smoke more than the others. That o-ring saved me from buying fuel all winter! I got $5,000 in fuel sumped for a $5 o-ring! Thanks.

I ran eight ounces of two-stroke oil per 18 an gallon tank to help with lubrication of the injector seats, and it did quiet the injectors down a lot.

I've personally run about 1,000 gallons of Jet A through my 95 7.3 diesel, and I would run 1,000 more if I could get it for free after defueling a aircraft with an under wing panel leaking. Our ground power units are diesel, as well are Jet A powered. Being in aviation, every diesel vehicle at the airport runs off sumped Jet A from aircraft tanks, or Jet A right out of the fuel truck. The diesel engines run fine off Jet A, a little dry for some seals in pumps, but no harm done. If you know which end of the screwdriver to use, you can do it in less than three hours your first time, I would bet! I can do it myself and it’s super simple – takes about an hour. A burner rebuild kit for my monitor is about $250. They are simple heaters and easy to repair. They are the two primary heat sources, unless you are near Anchorage/Wasilla or Kenai where natural gas is available.

I can tell you that there are probably about as many monitor and toyo heaters in Alaska as wood stoves. In the bush in Alaska, they get only three types of fuel if they are larger villages: Jet A, gasoline and 100LL. All monitors use diesel! And now with ULSD it is even a no maintenance issue with soot to burn no.
