Anyone here with a diesel that regularly runs something other then diesel? Bio? JP-8? ATF? Thoughts or experiences you would like to share?

My 85' has been modfifed to run bio by the previous owner, but without having access to bio, I am back to regular #2. Just curious if anyone else is running anything other then diesel.

:cheers:

Yes, you can. A diesel will run on pretty much any fuel oil. Diesel power did an article on a guy with a 7.3L running 90% used ATF to 10% diesel.

Now, like anything else, just because you can do it, doesnt mean you should. So proceed with caution.
