Home Brew: Cutting WVO w/ Kero?

I find that I'm a happy camper when my two barrels (55 gal ea.) are full of fuel.

Can a better viscosity be achieved by cutting WVO with say 20% kerosene. It is my understanding that kero is #1 diesel without some of the lubricant qualities needed to run in our cars. I was wondering if the kero could borrow some lubrication from the WVO and if the WVO could borrow some of the thinner vicosity needs from the kero?

Thanks

Don
