What's Kero cost where you are?
Just seeing if a 70/30 VO/kero mix will be cheaper than 100 Diesel.

The kero pump and diesel pump sit next to one another. I noticed when I gassed up the other day that they are the same price at my station in Michigan - $3.499!

Is Kerosene and diesel the same? Can they be used instead of each other?

Anywhere from 10 to 40% Kero depending on temps. Don't try it without some research first.

Home Depot in CA
Hi,
Whoa, in TX the kero is cheaper at Home Depot. It is $6/1gallon out here at Home Depot. I'd buy $6/5gallons! That is super cheap, especially since you can blend it with free WVO to make nice one tank fuel. Cheers, Yoko |

K1 (red stuff) @ OK petroleum 2.89/gal , Diesel 2.99/gal as of 11/1. K1 was 2.17/gal until the hurricanes
![]() You can run your diesel on Kerosene if you add some lubrication. 1% of veg oil will work or FPPF makes a additive. It does have less energy than Diesel so you MPG will drop.
