I'm not going to debate anyone who thinks modern diesel fuel needs more lubricity than they already have. It's funny how some people think it needs this or that, or this much of this or that... I would be a little concerned about using Kerosene though, especially if you are concerned about lubricity. Kerosene does not have the additives of diesel fuel, like lubricity additive.
There are specific additives to combat gelling, and most of those also include lubricity and maybe even a cetane booster. They should be more cost effective than mixing Kerosene or other home brews.
Diesel typically starts to gel around 10-15*F. If you want protection to minus 15*F using Kerosene, you would want to mix at least 50% Kerosene, that's a lot if you ask me. A general rule of thumb is every 10% of Kerosene lowers the gel point about 5*F.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
