I would strongly advise against it.
Typically cars either burn gasoline or diesel fuel if the engines are equipped to burn that. Kerosene is normally not used in a diesel but it will function in an emergency just as well as diesel fuel except that the injection parts will not receive much lubrication. But it will get you home in a pinch. If your question is can you use #2 diesel in a wick type kerosene heater then no. Diesel fuel will smoke and stink compared to kerosene. If your question is can you use #2 diesel in a kerosene heater that is like a salamander, then maybe. I use #2 diesel in my salamander and it works fine and heats my garage up ok. Kerosene does burn cleaner though.
Gasoline, natural gas, propane, methane, butane, oil, kerosene, diesel, lamp oil.
Yes! Diesel, kerosene and gasoline are really the same thing except that they have different octanes. Diesel is the lowest refined gas then kerosene then your different octanes of gas. So, to make the octane the same as kerosene you simply mix the right amount of gas with diesel and voila, you have kerosene. I think u can use a lower octane than kerosene but NEVER put anything of a higher octane than kerosene! Yes!

Diesel and kerosene are quite close chemically. Kerosene has some heavier paraffins and would clog the injectors of a diesel engine.
Many lamps use electrical energy, but some lamps use chemical energy, for example a kerosene lamp or a candle.
Kerosene is lighter than diesel. Diesel has a higher density and is thus heavier than kerosene.
bright,colourful, maybe something to describe its pattern portable light, lamp, kerosene lamp, oil lamp
Diesel 911 is primarily designed as a fuel treatment for diesel engines, specifically to address issues like fuel gel and water contamination in diesel fuel. While it may help emulsify some water in diesel, it is not specifically formulated for separating water from kerosene. For removing water from kerosene, it's best to use methods specifically designed for that purpose, such as filtration or water-absorbing additives specifically made for kerosene.
yes If it's a space heater - don't use diesel if it's dyed.
Using diesel instead of kerosene in a kerosene heater is not recommended. Diesel has a higher viscosity and different combustion properties, which can lead to inefficient burning, increased smoke, and potentially harmful emissions. Additionally, it may cause damage to the heater and void any warranties. It's best to use the fuel specified by the manufacturer for safe and efficient operation.
0.5kg of gas.. because the whole 0.5kg of kerosene is already burnt out.
A diesel engine will run fine on kerosene. If you are going to run it on kerosene for an extended amount of time you might want to put some lubricant additive in with it. Winter diesel is various blends of diesel and kerosene.In the UK you may wish to think about the tax implications,road fuel carries a higher duty and using kerosene(domestic heating oil) in a vehicle would be tax evasion.
