Jet fuel (there’s variants, but a very common one is known as Jet A) is really close to regular old diesel fuel. And, for that matter, kerosene. You can even run it straight in your diesel car or truck, though it doesn’t lubricate as well so if you do, you’d want to add some sort of lubrication additive.Click to see full answer. Beside this, what is the difference between diesel fuel and jet fuel?Diesel gas is heavier than jet fuel, with a higher number of slightly larger hydrocarbon chains, though both are primarily paraffin oils (kerosene). Diesel is more viscous than jet fuels.One may also ask, can you run kerosene in a diesel truck? Kerosene will burns fine in most diesel engines without harming them. Because of this, kerosene burns cooler than diesel and has no lubricant additives like diesel fuel does. This means that if you do run kerosene in your diesel, it will put a strain on your injector pump unless you add the right lubricant to the fuel. Furthermore, what happens if you put jet fuel in a car? The effect would be similar to putting diesel in a petrol engine. Jet fuel is slightly heavier than diesel so does put extra strain on the fuel pump, but it does work. So if you put jet fuel into a diesel car, it should be able to run, but without adding a lubricant to the fuel, it will cause long term damage.Does jet fuel burn hotter than diesel?Think of it this way: Jet fuel is like hojillion octane gas. It’s very, very, VERY pure, designed for maximum efficiency and maximum output. Diesel does not explode under normal conditions, though it does burn hotter than gasoline. The whole “fuel tanks are gonna explode” scenario is brought to us by Hollywood.
