think i burnt my motor up
ok so what happens when three teenagers get bored and live next to an airport, they get the bright idea to run jet fuel threw a 01 dodge 1500 360.
now that that piece of info is out there i no im gonna catch some chit, but i need help tryin to fix it.
ok it started making a squealing noise (like a fan belt squeal) about a mile from home, then about 10 miles later it started over heating and losing compression. we shut her down at this point and the gauge said we where out of gas, so we put GAS in it this time and turned back around to go back to the house. it had a sputter and no power at all and shes still running hot stayed around 250. made me sick driving home with it running that hot. ok now this morning i pulled a plug and its not shot but its getting close to it and its still sputtering and popping and has no power any suggestions on whats wrong? o and when i shut her down the first time and then cranked her up again at an idle it filled that gas station full off a white colored smoke but the wired part about it is the smoke smelt kinda like black smoke from a diesel.this morning when i cranked it a little blue smoke come out when i reved it but not very much, blue smoke has come out before when i reved it so im not sure about that one but any help would be appreciated.

So what did it do when you first ran it? Did it run at all with the fuel in it?

Check you're oil level anyway..
and do a compression test..
I'd say you smoked the rings, warped a head, seized a bearing,at the least. Jet fuel burns HOT
The oily smoke may not have been blue at those temps.

i was thinking that jet fuel was similar to diesel,
you need to get straight gas running through it. and be prepared for crap mileage until you get the jet fuel completely out of its system. whenever i put seafoam in my tank i get a little worse mileage, so having a good bit of jet fuel in there should net you some bad numbers at the pump.

Jp 5
When I was in the Marines, we put used Jet fuel in our trucks and they ran. Of course the engines were multi fuel and you could burn gas, diesel or Jet Fuel (JP 5) in them with no worries. I once put diesel in my Jeep (Some idiot switched fuels at the pump) and talk about smoking!!!! You could see me coming a mile away. They drained the tank, put in gas the I drove away quite contented and the jeep did not miss a beat.
However, I would say your engine is toast. I would say a remanufacture is in your future.
