Yup you can run kero. But you need to start on gas and warm up the tractor. Then use a "hot" manifold to preheat your mixture. On low compression engines kero will give more power than gas. But if your compression is to high you will have pre-ignition (pinging) problems. Also kero never burns completely and will dilute the lubricating oil. The old F20s (and others)were made with an extra petcock in the oil pan to draw off the lighter kerosene every morning berfore starting the tractor.
