Can you use diesel in place of k1 kerosene?
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.

yes If it's a space heater - don't use diesel if it's dyed.
Can you use diesel instead of kerosene in a kerosene heater?
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.
Can you mix kerosene and cooking oil from fryer to burn in home furnace?
No I tried it and definitely NO. The good news is that the heater isnt destroyed....you remove all the vegtable oil and fill the heater with diesel it will still work.

Can you use acetone in a kerosene heater?
No, it is not safe to use acetone in a kerosene heater. Acetone is a highly flammable liquid that can ignite easily and produce harmful fumes when burned. Kerosene heaters are designed to burn kerosene, which has specific properties that make it suitable for use in these heaters. Using acetone in a kerosene heater can pose serious safety risks and should be avoided.
Can diesel or biodiesel be burned in a kerosene space heater?
ANSWER:Normal diesel fuel should not be burned in a kerosene heater, because there are many more contaminants in it, such as sulfur. A 100% solution of Biodiesel will not work because it requires a much higher initial temperature (300F) to burn cleanly. Blends of these fuels with kerosene can be burned, but there may be problems with the fuel soaking up the wick properly in the case of Biodiesel, which can lead to wick burning and sooting. There may also be problems lighting and burning properly if the blend contains too much of the Biodiesel, as its flash point is higher than kerosene. Diesel/Biodiesel fuel can also be run in many forced air heaters along with kerosene.
