Hi Juan, I am not sure how large your town is but there may be other names for fuel that will work for you down there. Try to find Parrifin oil, #1 heating oil,or if you have to use diesel fuel but you might want to get hotter sparkplugs.Almost any very light oil will work. Unless your tractor was made to run on Kerosene or some of the oils mentioned it will be almost impossible to start it when it is cold. The kero burning tractors all have small gasoline tanks to use to start them with. Once it is warmed up you switch the tanks to run on the oil.If your tractor was made to run on Gasoline putting Kero in it could be a disaster. Mixing fuel will not work so well as it will separate. Hope this helps.
