Dose anybody know if kerosene can be used in our engines without causing any problems ?

Kerosene is recommended under extreme cold conditions I believe, though you would hardly run into such conditions in the lower 48 states. Manual states you can use it in an emergency otherwise. <br> I don't think it has the lubricating qualities that your injection pump requires, so I wouldn't unless it was that or walking 100 miles.

CP: I use a mixture of about 10% Kero in the winter when I know it is going to get real cold. This is usually about three gallons in a full tank of fuel. Never had any problems yet though I don't think it gets cold enough to do to fuel what happens up north. I have had my heating oil tank gel and had to buy that $34 a quart stuff to de-gel it. A good anti-gel additive will do the same thing. As touchy as these injector pumps are, be real careful about what you use.

Kerosene is not recommended for the new 24V engines due to the pump getting its lubrication from the fuel. (well maybe in an emergency you could get by for a while)... Now the older 12V engines can run on just about any distillate (kero, jet fuel, aviation fuel, etc). But again in emergency situations..<br><br>If you buy your fuel from a truck stop they probably are already selling a &quot;winter blend&quot; of diesel.. Here in VA the blend tends to be a 80% diesel and 20% kerosene...<br><br>If you decide to add kero to your tank make sure it is CLEAR and not dyed.. Dyed is a big NO NO..
