some put ATF oil with every full tank of diesel. one quart of ATF for every full tank, it makes good power said some but never tried it.

kerosene burns faster and cleaner than diesel. jeepney drivers do that when they get caught by the denr anti smoke belching drives. they mix kerosene with the diesel so that the engine will pass the test at the lto, less carbon monoxide and soot kasi. also since it burns faster than diesel it also gives higher power output.
you can actually even mix kerosene with gasoline. in fact your gasoline engine can run on pure kerosene. start it up using gasoline then when it is already warmed up you can switch to pure kerosene (this means you have 2 fuel tanks, 1 for gasoline and 1 for kerosene). no guarantees it won't knock, though. here on the rig our rescue boat has 2 fuel tanks, one gasoline and 1 kerosene. parehas lang lakas ng acceleration nya pag naka-100% kerosene na e.
aviation turbo is simply clean kerosene (low sulfur). as a matter of fact, the 2nd stage of the Saturn V rockets that took the Apollo missions to the moon used kerosene for fuel. that is how powerful kerosene is. they use it on 747 passenger planes, f15 fighter jets and even moon rockets, so why not your diesel engines! it is a lot cleaner than diesel mind you.
the only draw back using pure kerosene on your diesel engine is you lose lubrication on your injection pumps (diesel is thicker than kerosene). but if it is mixed with diesel then ok pa yan.
