can you use diesel fuel

Yes, you can use diesel, however the manufacturer recommends using Kerosene 1. It can shorten the lifespan of the product and requires much more maintenance.

We use diesel in are's, Runs great & cheaper to operate.When shutting unit off you can't just unplug. Follow manufactures instructions.Empty fuel compartment when not using in summer months.

Diesel fuel can be used but it will have an odor, especially if in an enclosed space. Outdoors, may be able to stand the odor.would suggest making a deal with local airport to use Jet-A. This is an extremely good quality kerosene. I run Jet-A without PRST (additive to prevent algae growth and jelling at altitude) in the 3 heaters I have like this one.

Yes, this heater will run on diesel full. It will also run on off road diesel or #2 heating oil, it will just not burn as clean on these as it will with kerosene. Most of the fumes will come at start up.

Robert I wish I could answer your question but I want to ask the same question. I do not like paying $8.00 a gallon for kerosene.If you find out please let me know.

I dont know the exact model for diesels. Id say look it up with manufacturer, but i do advise o. Diesek you use a conditioner on a regular basis. The new diesel fuel in thr USa is very low sulfur which affects the seals and injectors greatly.

You can use on a marine diesel unless your boat is Coast Guard approved for taking passengers for hire. In that case you would want to use the UL approved 500MA series.

DEpends on teh particular features you are looking for and how you think you might use it. Personally, to me, the Diesel is the best for my needs.

This unit 85250 will NOT work on a diesel. You would need Edge number 85200. Please feel free to give me a call if you need more information. Thanks, Dave monster performance 870-580-0940

Yes I run mine on 50/50 mix diesel and waste engine oil, or straight heating oil in winter and straight waste motor oil in summer.

ONLY use air tool oil, not something like 3in1, etc. Regular oil might "diesel", air oil will not.

This heater is recommended for use with No.1-K kerosene fuel. Factory tested for use with No.2-K kerosene, No.1 or No.2 Diesel, No.1 or No.2 fuel oil or JP8 Jet A fuel and these fuels may be used as well.

I am not sure. I used my for gasoline. Since gasoline is more volatile, I cannot see why it could not pump diesel fuel. Contact Airtex for their recommendation. They have a great support staff. When diagnosing the fuel pump in my 2003 Ford E450 RV, I needed to know the pin locations on the fuel pump connector. Wiring diagrams only go so far. Airtex was able to supply that information.

No! Its not meant for fuel to run through it. Like others have said it will read poorly at the lower pressures normal vehicles run at. I actually had an Oriley employee suggest doing the same on my F350 diesel. Lets just say I bought a tester there, had him do it and promptly refund my money as it didnt work as he thought ;-)

Yes, this product can be used on all gasoline vehicle's. I would consult the Lucas website before use in diesel engines.

I'm not sure about diesels. However, if the truck uses the OBDII computer system, it should work. Probably should research it a bit more before buying.

This is not designed for use with diesel fuel or to be used with typical diesel injector pressures. Sorry for any confusion.

Absolutely! This fuel can is made for that and the fuel flows well from the can. We use them to store red diesel for our tractor. They're well made as well and will last a long time making this fuel can a great investment.

No. I use K 1 kerosene..(clear). Forget red... #1 or #2 diesel or fuel oil.

Thank you for your question. The Niagara and Baron pumps can be used to transfer Diesel Fuel. Although we do not believe there would be a problem with transferring gasoline neither pump has been tested or approved to transfer gasoline. We DO NOT recommend using the pump for gasoline.
