sorry i know im like flooding this board but i saved a lot of questions for the weekend....
i heard on another forum that peeple put kerosine in their tanks for a louder engine noise? doesnt this hurt ur truck in some way?

 

Dude, you'll blow your engine right up!
Just kidding. Actually, I don't know. (Go figure )

That is a good question though.

 

I don't know, this might work,I'm not volunteering,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Kerosene-Type Jet Fuel: A kerosene-based product having a maximum distillation temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit at the 10-percent recovery point and a final maximum boiling point of 572 degrees Fahrenheit and meeting ASTM Specification D 1655 and Military Specifications MIL-T-5624P and MIL-T-83133D (Grades JP-5 and JP-8). It is used for commercial and military turbojet and turboprop aircraft engines,,,,,,,,,,,,,I think that boiling point temp maybe wrong anybody have any firsthand expierence with heating jet fuel.

 

running kerosene is like running diesel in gas engines... its gonna run like crap... the compression ration isnt high enough... just dont do it... you will seriously save yourself some serious hell

 

trucky, try grain alcohol........if it is not loud enough, drink it and you wont care

 

I dont reccommend it but I used to dump some JP-8 in a grand am, just a bit. Fuel injection cleaner is just jet fuel.

 

Yea.
Heres some (useless) info found from some MSDS's:
Flash point ( lowest temperature at which it can form an ignitable mixture with air):
gasoline: -40*F
diesel: 125*F
kerosene: 100*F
JP-8 (jet fuel): 100*F

Autoignition temperature (lowest temperature at which a chemical will spontaneously ignite in a normal atmosphere, without an external source of ignition, such as a flame or spark)
gasoline: 495*F
diesel: 500*F
kerosene: 410*F
JP-8: 410*F

As you see, while JP-8 (and kerosene, the same thing pretty much) have higher flash points, while their autoignition temperaute (spontanious combustion) is lower. At work, we have a lot of safety precautions while refueling a plane. A few Air Force planes have been burnt to the ground because when refueling, people did something they shouldn't of.

You can run JP-8 in a diesel motor all day long though.

 

So your saying don't put any in a Fry Daddy,you ruined my saturday.

 

im not saying im going to do it or want to sound loud...im just trying to figure out why some other peeple have done it...now im seeing they said it shoots out a little blue flame.. i think its retarded but i just wanna get my facts straight

 

wow grain alcohol, simply put ,moon shine. dont do it. you wanna see detonation kerosine is a deisel type fuel. made for lamps and stuff not for motors.
