April 10th, 2010 02:01 PM #1is it alright to mix a liter of kerosene for a full tank of diesel? Somebody says it has the effect of cleaning the fuel line, like nipple tips and for the engine added power.

kerosene can be a substitute for diesel. the military had been using jp4 (jet propellant 4) and jp8 for their ground support equipment. jp8 is nothing but high grade kerosene. but as far as cleaning the fuel line or the nozzle tips, is another story. there are formulations that you can purchase to add to the diesel fuel to clean your tank, lines and nozzles

when rudolf diesel first built his engine, it was designed to run on peanut oil. during the second world war, when there was no diesel #2 supply, my dad used to run agricultural stationary diesel engines for rice mill on coconut oil.

April 14th, 2010 02:15 PM #6Opinion ko lang:
Kunting halo ng kerosene sa diesel oil ay ok lang. Ang alam ko ay ang gasolina hindi dapat mahalo sa diesel. Sariling eksperiensya ko, pag nahaloan ng medyo maraming gasolina and diesel oil then use to engine with aluminum piston ang piston top ay masisira. Pinaka delikado ay mabutas ang piston. Seen this before in yanmar generator engine.
Too many trucks in Marcos. Naguilan is too far coming from the south. So Kennon is a lot faster.
