Theoretically a diesel will burn many of the light oils, but cost is the major stumbling block. A farmer could grow his own soybeans and refine them into fuel oil, but the cost of refining would be prohibitive. Right now, even at cabal prices oil is cheaper. Research will change that. During WWII Europeans used many alternative fuels, like coal oil, or methane gas derived from walnut hulls. Cost wasn't a consideration, there was no other fuel available.
