Ye just for fun it is different to run on Kero. less explosion noise so the engine is quieter. not to much diff in the power. A long time ago someone who works in the fuel industry did a post on how to "make " your own distillate. Take really crap gas let it stew in the bottom of a gas tank and then add some stinky stuff to it. It was pretty bad sounding stuff. Come to think of it it was almost some kind of a brew of 2 cycle mix soundin. Actually from what I have read it was a very poor grade of gas that was for the agg market and was really dirt cheap! The tractor must be pretty hot to burn this stuff. Hope someone saved it and can repost it. I would like to save it if they do. Thanks! Jeffcat
