For those who don't know, regular poster Bob (aka Ajaffa) and his wife recently lost his house and many of their possessions (but apparently not his engines!) to a bush fire. Please see this post for details of an appeal to help him rebuild. Thanks, everyone from LEF.

Other Fuels / kerosene as fuel ????
« on: November 18, 2011, 02:49:03 PM »
hi any body using kerosene as fuel in listers can it be used straight or mixed with diesel or even mixed with other fuels other fuels ?
i was considering wvo but i think supply might be a bit small as i think i moght have to have a waste oil collection lisence to be allowed to collect it in any worthwill quantities
diesel here is about 0.96c pl and kero is about 0.75c pl about 20cent pl differance and i s about the cheapest oil i can buy here

have u any contact details on the guy from ireland who is dealing in the chinese engines ?
or should i stick to the originnal ,have heard a few horror stories ovet hte last few days
about casting sand in the crank case and dodgy build quality also heard of one guy who got his new engine
to discover first that it was painted AFTER it went into the shipping crate then found sand etc
but having said that have heard of quit afew people that are very happy with them (chinese engines)
so i still dont know what is best although big and slow seem to be the way to go rather then small nd fast
