Jet A fuel?

Mad Max · Jul 26, 2012

can this be run straight in a 7.3 without giving me too much grief? I currently work at an airport and everyday i have to sump 5 gallons of it to test, so naturally we have alot of it going to waste, just wondering if the 7.3 can handle it blended with diesel, or is it way too hot to run?

I'm not real sure but I think you would be fine if you blend it with regular diesel, just keep the ratio of diesel higher than the jetA. JMO of course

If I am not mistaken the air force runs it in there trucks. And they have short bed 6.0's

Make sure to atleast add something to increase lubricity

I know I have heard of it run in 6.0s before.

I was gonna say, this one has been beat to death on other forums. I have heard of guys running it 50/50 with diesel and plenty of two stroke oil mix personally.
