Just burn gasoline in it. Forget about the distillate burning capabilities that it MIGHT still have. Be the simplest thing to do.
In order to burn distillate, you have to have two tanks (one for straight gas), a functional intake heating manifold, and functional shutters. Most people didn't keep these components functional over the years since the yesteryears of burning distillate are long since gone. And if they ever replaced anything in recent decades, such as the manifold, they just put gas burning parts back on. So, it may no longer even have distillate burning capabilities if the shutters have been taken off, cold manifold has been installed, and the original small gas tank (for gas originally) is no longer in use or has been discarded (not sure what Massey Harris did for the reserve gas tank). Had a separate little tank, or a partition in the large tank.
If you got all the components, yes, you can burn distillate. But where are you going to buy it?? And is it really worth the headache???
